An overview of National
Manpower Registration
The labor force register in the Sultanate comes in implementation
of Royal decree No. (88/2001). It includes all data and
information about the labor force and it thoroughly monitors its
detailed data and information and any changes in it. This
register is considered as an important project to which the
government represented by the Ministry of Manpower accords
special attention.
When completed, this mega project will enable the Sultanate to
enter the third millennium ( the information millennium) and put
Oman among the developed countries in the world. The labor force
register will also help rationalize human resources policies and
assist in drafting the appropriate plans and procedures to
implement the endorsed polices and assess their impact on the
economic and social development and the labor market in Oman.
