continue to develop their labor markets, attracting and retaining talent has become an important priority for businesses and economic growth. Beyond competitive salaries and benefits, employees increasingly consider workplace culture, career development, and opportunities for long-term growth when choosing where to work.<\/p>\n<p>The three countries led the Middle East in labor market competitiveness in 2026, with the UAE ranking first globally, Qatar second, and Saudi Arabia sixth, according to the International Institute for Management Development&#8217;s (IMD) World Competitiveness Yearbook.<\/p>\n<p>The UAE&#8217;s labor-force participation rate rose to 82.2% in 2025, from 81.4% in 2024, while its labor force expanded by 13% year-on-year, according to the Federal Competitiveness and Statistics Centre. In Qatar, participation reached 88.4% in the fourth quarter of 2025, up from 88.12% a year earlier, according to the National Planning Council. Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia&#8217;s labor-force participation rate reached 67.2% in the second quarter of 2026, up one percentage point year-on-year, according to the General Authority for Statistics.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Forbes Middle East, in partnership with Statista, presents its inaugural Best Employers Middle East 2026 list, recognizing 240 employers across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar. The UAE and Saudi Arabia each account for 110 entries, followed by Qatar with 20.<\/p>\n<p>Qatar Foundation, which ranks second in Qatar&#8217;s 2026 list, offers flexible working hours, enhanced parental leave, and medical insurance covering autism treatment, speech therapy, and developmental delays. It also supports employees pursuing further studies in Qatar and abroad. Its annual employee engagement survey aims to \u201cimprove listening, capture employee feedback and strengthen engagement,\u201d according to Nasser Al Hajri, Chief Operations Officer at Qatar Foundation.<\/p>\n<p>The ranking draws on more than 170,000 anonymous evaluations collected between March and July 2026 from employees across 27 industries. Respondents assessed their current and former employers, as well as other companies within their industries. Direct employee evaluations carried a 60% weighting in the assessment, while broader perceptions of employers accounted for the remaining 40%.<\/p>\n<p>To qualify, employers were required to have at least 250 employees in the country where they were assessed and receive a minimum number of evaluations. The ranking recognizes organizations that earned strong recommendations from employees and favorable assessments across the wider labor market.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><style
