Arab Labour Organisation report praises Oman

Cairo: The Arab Labour Organisation (ALO) hailed the existing partnership between the private and public sectors in the field of social responsibility.
The report ALO prepared on “Corporate Social Responsibility,” which is to be submitted to the 45th conference of the Arab Labour Conference in Cairo says that the Omani private sector organisations join hands with the public sector’s organisations to provide assistance to limited income families and jobseekers.
It affirmed that the Omani businesses feel that they have to give part of their profits back to the society, which partially contribute to their success and profits.
The report pointed out that one of the biggest challenges before promoting social responsibility programmes in the Arab countries is the confusion between social responsibility and charitable work concepts.
The ALO report noted that Arab cooperation in the field of social responsibilities has become a dire need due to the challenges posed by the global system and the current status of the Arab world, which requires enhancing joint work in socioeconomic fields.
