In line with the Qatar National Vision 2030, the company promotes the development of its staff and prioritizes their welfare, thus contributing to business success and the advancement of the Qatari community.

At the end of 2018, the company workforce was composed of 1,823 full-time employees. Qatar Steel also hires contractors to work full time to support different work at the plant and the main offices. The number of full-time contractors at Qatar Steel in 2018 amounted to 451 individuals, making the total workforce 2,274.

Due to the nature of work performed, most of our employees are male and between 30 and 60 years of age. However, the company is undertaking efforts to target and recruit more female and young employees, as a commitment to diversity of the workforce. Female employees currently make up 0.49% of our total work-force, and young employees 10.2% respectively, up from 8.4% in 2017.

The Human Capital Department is guided by a comprehensive holistic approach that ensures the company’s recruitment, retention, and development system is in accordance with the best industry practices, as well as aligned with internal company policies, such as the Code of Conduct and related policies. Qatar Steel is proud of the diversity of talent within its team, and hires without discrimination against race, age or gender.
