Employees affected by Article 5 citizenship revocation to receive new contracts: CSC

The Kuwait government to rehire employees affected by citizenship revocation under Article 5 with new contracts.

KUWAIT CITY, Aug 9: The Civil Service Commission (CSC) has issued a directive to government agencies to withdraw the employment of staff whose citizenships were revoked under Article 5, related to noble deeds, with plans to offer new contracts subsequently.

According to informed sources, government entities will reinstate these employees under new contracts that provide unified benefits. However, these benefits will differ from those granted to Kuwaiti nationals.

The sources emphasized that renewing contracts for employees in this category will guarantee the continuation of their salary payments, ensuring no interruptions in their remuneration.

This move reflects the Civil Service Commission's efforts to clarify employment status and benefits for affected personnel following the revocation of their citizenship.
