Women 'should either work from home or remain housewives' - Arab News
QUOTE. Referring to the employment of women in the private sector, [Saudi Labor Minister] Gosaibi said a large majority of families would not want their women to work in the private sector. He had received several letters to this effect, he said and emphasized that the families also wanted them to work only in segregated places.
“Women should either work from home or remain housewives, as the housewife also has a role to play in taking care of the family, especially children.” However, in the case of the private sector employing women in substantial numbers, it would be an ideal thing to provide them separate places of work, he added. UNQUOTE.
