Cairo: Oman’s Ministry of Labour has exposed dozens of cases involving bogus employment of citizens at private sector institutions as the country seeks to create jobs for its nationals.

The ministry added on its Twitter that it has exposed 180 cases of fake employment of Omani manpower that illegally allowed the issuance of 660 permits for recruiting non-Omanis to work at private sector institutions.
