Jakarta (Indonesia Window) – Saudi citizens have the equal right to work without any discrimination, including on the basis of gender, whether during the performance of work or while hiring or advertising about a job, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development has stressed.

The ministry’s unequivocal clarification came in a response to a query via the ministry’s Customer Care account on Twitter after a company published an advertisement about jobs for men only, Saudi Gazette reported.
