The creative strategy of the organization has won over many, and now everyone is watching to see how this experiment plays out, particularly in terms of how it affects productivity and quality of work.
According to Dr. Khalil Al Thiyabi, a Saudi specialist in human resources, the kingdom's weekly vacation should be standardized to be in line with worldwide norms.
Dr. Al Thiyabi pointed out that, considering Saudi Arabia's economic position and worldwide influence, it could be advantageous to switch the weekly vacation to Saturday and Sunday, similar to other major economies and G20 countries. Join Saudi Expatriates on Google News
