Oman has introduced updates to its work permit framework, impacting employment conditions for expatriates, including a large Indian workforce. The changes include revised quotas, sector-specific regulations, and stricter compliance requirements.
The policy aims to balance local employment priorities with the need for foreign labour in key industries. Indian workers, particularly in construction and services, are closely monitoring developments.
Employers are adjusting hiring strategies to align with new rules, while workers are seeking clarity on eligibility and renewal processes.
Experts note that regulatory changes are part of broader labour market reforms across the Gulf region.
