BURAIDAH: Filipino migrant workers, also called Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs), have projected their image as good, efficient, skilled and hardworking employees, so it has become common to hear Saudi employers praise them.
“We have 300 foreign staff and majority of them are Filipinos, with whom we have had a long association since our manufacturing plant in Qassim was set up in 1988,” said Ahmed Al-Rebdi, vice president for manufacturing and technical affairs of the Saudi Pharmaceutical Industries & Medical Appliances Corporation (SPIMACO).
