Manama, The Labour Fund "Tamkeen" announced its support of more than 40 Bahraini employees at "Taha International' through the Wage Increment Program and the National Employment Program.

"Taha International' is a Bahraini company specialised in industrial services. The company applies unique patented technology developed by Bahraini and international experts in processing aluminum waste while reducing carbon emissions and is now being adopted by a number of aluminum smelters worldwide. "Our support for Bahrainis at "Taha International' comes as a result of the enterprises' commitment to develop and empower national competencies that will positively impact the growing industrial sector. The sector contributed 13% to the Kingdom's GDP in 20 23, making it the second-largest contributor among non-oil sectors in the national economy" Khalid Al Bayat, Chief Growth Officer at Tamkeen, said. For his part, Mr. Ammar Awachi, Chief Executive Officer of Taha International, expressed his appreciation of the support provided by "Tamkeen", and the efforts put forward to invest in the development of Bahrainis, thereby reinforcing the private sector's role in national economic growth.

We take pride in the high numbers of Bahrainization within our team, which was achieved due to the qualitative support programs offered by "Tamkeen"' he said.

Tamkeen plays a pivotal role in guiding and supporting the training of Bahraini talent, activating their potential, and increasing their ability to meet labor market needs to eventually secure promising job opportunities, which positively impacts the economy" Awachi added. Tamkeen's support is aligned with its 2024 strategic priorities focused on economic impact and the private sector under three pillars: increasing economic participation through employment opportunities for new entrants, expanding career development opportunities available to the Bahraini workforce, and further developing the private sector by supporting enterprises and boosting productivity and the adoption of technology.
