Oman starts survey on jobs, leisure and public services
Muscat – The National Centre for Statistics and Information (NCSI) has launched a nationwide public opinion survey to gauge the views of Omani citizens on employment, recreation, and public services, including tourism and sports.
The phone-based survey, which runs from June 15 to June 24, targets Omani nationals aged 18 and above across all governorates. It aims to gather reliable data on issues that impact daily life in the sultanate and contribute to the formulation of development policies grounded in public sentiment.
According to NCSI, the survey covers three key areas: the labour market, sports and recreational preferences, and satisfaction with tourism services available across the country.
Suad bint Abdullah al Maawali, Director of the Information Reports Department at NCSI, said the initiative is designed to capture citizen feedback on the employment sector and identify the types of recreational and sporting activities people engage in. It also aims to assess satisfaction levels with tourism services in different governorates.
The project is part of wider efforts to ensure national development initiatives are guided by current and comprehensive data. Citizens are encouraged to participate and provide candid responses to help shape future strategies.
Officials noted that the findings will play a pivotal role in evaluating and refining initiatives aligned with Oman Vision 2040, with a focus on improving public services and enhancing overall quality of life.
