title:

Under the second phase of the project, the ILO and MHRSD should agree on positioning an employment adviser and a skills adviser inside the Ministry, like the arrangement made under Phase 1. The ILO and the MHRSD should agree on assigning a technical adviser inside the ministry, identified based on his strong knowledge and expertise in labour -related issues, and his familiarity with the KSA context. He/she will play a coaching, coordinating, and monitoring role as an independent expert to the ministry, providing support for policy development, review, implementation and monitoring and evaluation. The employment adviser would also focus employment impact assessment, labour market and economic analysis, and shall provide technical and capacity building support to Ministry’s staff. A second adviser to provide support to the new agency responsible for training and skills should also be considered to provide on-the ground and daily support to the Ministry.
