Kiwatule based labour externalization company Forbes Enterprises Limited remains consistent, genuine and committed in serving the nation by offering employment opportunity to many Ugandans willing to work abroad.
Last Friday officials bid farewell to 80 youths at the company offices who left the country for Middle East countries to work in different fields.
These youths landed lucrative jobs that include airport handlers, drivers, security among others.
Forbes has since contributed tremendously to the wellbeing of many lives in our society today and is recognized by Ministry of Gender.
Basing on the high demand of employment opportunities, Forbes enterprise came out to help the youth find good paying jobs in the Middle East and Canada.
The company Managing Director Didas Kaginda on Friday said that according to Uganda bureau of statistics, there are more than 100,000 Ugandans working in the Middle East to date.
“Uganda, every year, receives about 500 million dollars of remittances from Ugandans working in the Middle East every year. The only other sector that brings in revenue to that tune in the economy is tourism,” he said.
Therefore, it goes without saying that labour migration can play a big role in the social and economic transformation of this country.
He appealed torecipients of this hard earned money to put it to good use.
“It is only through labour migration that a P7 graduate is able to earn 1,000,000/= per month. If this person happens to work for 24 months, she will return with about 24 million. I have heard countless stories of millionaires who started their businesses with far less capital,” he advised.
Kaginda pledged that Forbes shall continue to open doors for Ugandans because an exposed mind will never be the same.
“Just recently, we signed two contacts for the Dubai 2020 expo and Qatar 2022 world cup. They require different categories of people both professional and unskilled. We are very proud to bring these opportunities home.”
