Saudi Arabia's tourism labor market ranks second globally
Saudi Arabia recorded the second-largest global improvement since 2019 in developing its tourism labor market, with expansions in employment and skill development programs. Tourism jobs are expected to reach nearly one million by 2025, and women's participation has increased to 47% of the workforce. The Kingdom faces challenges in keeping pace with growth due to shortages of competencies and skills gaps, which could limit the sector’s development if training and professional development programs are not strengthened. Globally, it is projected that the demand for tourism-related labor will create a gap of up to 43 million jobs by 2035. Saudi Arabia ranked 29th worldwide in the Tourism and Travel Development Index for 2026, advancing three positions from 2024, emphasizing the importance of developing human resources to maintain the sector’s competitiveness and support significant future investments.
