Dr. Salwa Al Jassar, a member of the new Kuwaiti Parliament, revealed a number of new draft laws to be presented to the parliament aimed at consolidating roles of women within the Kuwaiti economy. In an interview with CNBC Arabiya in Dubai, Al Jassar said that these drafts include revising current laws governing women's role in the private sector and securing women's rights as one of the main drivers of economy. In addition, Al Jassar will submit a proposal to support the development of businesswomen projects and to push forward the Community of Kuwait Businesswomen, which already includes 650 businesswomen. Dr. Salwa Al Jassar, one of the first four Kuwaiti women elected to parliament, also said that she is drafting a new law that would provide civil, economic, and social security for women trying to establish their own projects from home and those looking for part-time work. The latest member of the parliament also called for reinforcing women's presence in the private sector, explaining that the government will not be able to provide jobs to all women and therefore women should make an entry into the private sector in a way that would secure their full rights. Al Jassar also called on Kuwaiti women to not look at education as a mean to receiving a degree, but that she should play an important role in economy, in addition to her role at home. According to Al Jassar, women in Kuwait represent a significant percentage in three main sectors only: managerial, education, and medicine and engineering, but they do not represent more than 6.5 percent in sectors like mining and industry. Al Jassar added that women represent 56 percent of the general workforce in Kuwait, 88 percent of which works in the government sector.
