Move sparks concern as Saudi accounts for biggest share of Malayali nurses in world - 21.5%

- ANNA JOSE @Kochi

WHILE the Saudi Arabia government's move to increase the proportion of its citizens in nursing jobs to 44% has raised concerns among the Malayali nurses' fraternity, experts point out that the policy will not have an immediate effect on their job prospects. For nurses are in high demand in the post-Covid world, they say.

"Saudi has been bringing changes to its policies for around 20 years now. But Malayali nurses have found opportunities in other countries as well. Also, they don't have to worry as it may take some time for the policy to be implemented," says Irudaya Rajan, chairperson of the International Institute of Migration Development, who has been closely watching the migration trends in India.
