HRSD set a plan to utilize all the capabilities of the community by defining new types of jobs. The main characteristics of the new jobs should be resilient to human needs and utilize unused capabilities of society like handicapped and women.The first type is: “Dynamic work” (https://mrn.sa) simplify the contracting between workers and worker-owners, where the worker can work on flexible hours, and worker-owners pays only for the actual working hours. With “Dynamic work”, the economy can utilize the skilled workers who have special conditions (e.g. handicapped). The second type: “Freelance” (https://freelance.sa) provides an official license to the workers to work on special skilled jobs depending on the workers’ free scheduled time, one of the targets is to increase the workers’ income (as a second job). The Third type: “Telework program” (https://teleworks.sa/en/) allows the worker-owners to build remote teams, control and evaluate the team performance without the need of being co-located.Statistics say:1."Dynamic work" has “989,1662” visits. “126,030” registered users. “2087” companies registered. “941” contracts are created/canceled e-contracts.2. “Freelance” issued 327,380 freelance certificates, and Supporting 10,233 Productive families.
