The heavy price of reconstructing the demographics of Saudi Arabia's construction sector | Al Bawaba:
"575,000 corrections to visa statuses has not been enough to stall the labour market and the reverberating aftershocks have rocked the sector.
There is estimated to be 12 million expatriates to be working in Saudi Arabia, or at least there used to be. Official figures are currently vague as to how many people have been forced to leave the Kingdom since it introduced a crackdown on the black market for labour but current best guesses stand in the region of one million.
You don’t have to be a maths genius to realise that almost 10% of the expat workforce has flown the country before being forced to pay fines or, worse, find themselves in prison."
