Summary
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has an extensive
social security system which aims to provide
every citizen with a decent standard of living in
line with Islamic principles. Its small
population and high gross domestic product (GDP)
allow the Kingdom to provide employed and
self-employed residents with help, such as
medical care, childcare, pensions and
unemployment benefit, as well as, in some cases,
housing and disability benefits. Saudi Arabia had
previously experimented with its social security
system by bringing in foreign workers, as the
countrys working population mainly consists of
expatriates due to their transient nature,
however, the plan was later shelved. The Ministry
of Labor provides general supervision, while the
General Organization for Social Insurance (GOSI)
administers various social welfare programs
through district offices.
