Nakilat has achieved a higher Qatarisation rate of 42% in 2017 compared to 37.4% in the previous year.
Through its wide-ranging Qatarisation efforts, which include supporting the training initiatives of various educational institutions in the country, the company aims to enhance the skills and abilities of its employees while raising awareness and interest in Qatar’s rapidly developing maritime industry.
This was said at the fourth ‘annual forum’ for its Qatari employees. The event was an excellent platform for national employees to learn about the company’s career development plans and programmes, interact with senior management members and have their queries addressed during the various discussions held.
The forum featured a series of insightful presentations and interactive sessions by both the company’s management as well as Qatari employees, highlighting the Qatarisation progress and the new and ongoing initiatives for the professional development of Qatari staff.
This initiative comes as part of the company’s robust Qatarisation programme that focuses not only on recruiting talented Qataris but also developing the existing talent pool and enabling them reach their full potential and become key contributors to the company and Qatar’s maritime industry, in line with Qatar National Vision 2030.
“This annual forum is an invaluable platform to reinforce the importance of Qatarisation to Nakilat, and highlights the company’s commitment in supporting our Qatari staff to achieve their professional goals,” managing director Abdullah Fadhalah al-Sulaiti said.
