Small retail outlets in Saudi Arabia illegally run by expatriate workers, including over 120,000 in Jeddah, face being closed as part of new labour regulations, according to a report on Sunday.
Officials in the kingdom are seeking to clamp down on Saudi nationals illegally hiring expatriate workers to manage their stores and service outlets in return for a shake of the profits, a practice commonly known as "tasattur".
The move would impact up to 120,000 outlets in Jeddah alone, a source told the Saudi Gazette newspaper on Sunday.
