Bahrainisation is a policy aimed at increasing local participation in the workforce, particularly in administrative and entry-level jobs. However, foreign workers are still essential in specialized, technical, and high-skill roles. Sectors such as engineering, IT, healthcare, hospitality, and construction continue to hire expatriates extensively. While certain roles may prioritize Bahraini nationals, foreign professionals with advanced skills, unique expertise, or technical certifications remain in high demand. Understanding which sectors rely heavily on expatriates helps job seekers plan effectively.
