Retirees May Open 8000 Jobs Yearly For Youth

08 May 2018 Kuwait

The Financial and Economic Affairs Committee of the National Assembly on Monday approved an amendment to the Company Law which will be presented to the National Assembly for voting.

The committee’s Rapporteur MP Saleh Ashour explained the meeting, which was attended by the Council of Ministers, also reviewed three amendments to the early retirement law which includes the right of men to retire after 30 years of service while in the case of women it is 25 years.

However, there is no age requirement in both cases. Ashour added that, the new law set the rate of deduction of 5 percent of the end of service indemnity for each year if the employee has worked for less than 30 years. He pointed out the government has reservations about this percentage, because it wants the deduction to be 2 percent for the term of service.

Committee member MP Osama Al-Shaheen said the Finance Committee has approved a bill that compels distribution of profits of commercial companies ‘LLC’ within one month of the date of the General Assembly to expedite and protect the rights of partners. MP Ali Al-Deqbasi thanked the Finance Committee for completion of the early retirement report, which will be included on the agenda of Tuesday’s session and the Parliament will be given credit for this big achievement.

Al-Deqbasi explained every year there will be 8,000 retirees, which will create jobs for the youth. He pointed out the early retirement is the bride of the legislation of the Parliament “and I thank the MPs who helped me to approve the law I presented.”
