Abstract

ABSTRACT Providing employment to nationals in an economy where more than two-thirds of the population comprise foreigners has been a struggle for the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries. Of the various tactics used by the GCC countries to nationalize their workforce, the quota system policy has been the most popular one. This study examines the integrative scholarly research on the quota system that has been reported to date and proposes a framework for discerning the role of the quota system in implementing the nationalization strategy as a tool, a facilitator, an inhibitor, and an assessor for nationalization. We conclude with several recommendations that policy makers and organizations can adopt to improve the efficacy of the quota system.

量化海湾合作委员会地区的人口：配额制度政策的用途、挑战和效力

摘要在一个三分之二以上人口由外国人组成的经济体中，为国民提供就业机会一直是海湾合作委员会（GCC）国家的一项斗争。在海湾合作委员会国家将劳动力国有化的各种策略中，配额制度政策是最受欢迎的一种。本研究考察了迄今为止报告的关于配额制度的综合学术研究，并提出了一个框架，用于识别配额制度在实施国有化战略中作为国有化工具、促进者、抑制剂和评估者的作用。最后，我们提出了一些建议，供决策者和组织采纳，以提高配额制度的效力。

期刊介绍： Human Resource Development International promotes all aspects of practice and research that explore issues of individual, group and organisational learning and performance. In adopting this perspective Human Resource Development International is committed to questioning the divide between practice and theory; between the practitioner and the academic; and between traditional and experimental methodological approaches. Human Resource Development International is committed to a wide understanding of ''organisation'' - one that extends through self-managed teams, voluntary work, or family businesses to global enterprises and bureaucracies. Human Resource Development International also commits itself to exploring the development of organisations and the life-long learning of people and their collectivity (organisation), their strategy and their policy, from all parts of the world. In this way Human Resource Development International will become a leading forum for debate and exploration of the interdisciplinary field of human resource development.
