Serco Middle East signed an MoU with SaveFast Training Academy, a Health Safety and Environment (HSE) training provider, at the LEAP event taking place in Riyadh

The MoU aims to enhance safety and upskill local talent in Saudi Arabia, using SaveFast’s innovative training and technology solutions.

The SaveFast Training Academy provides a range of HSE, driver training and technology solutions. These incorporate the use of virtual reality technology, behaviour-based telematics and HSE technologies.

Saudi Nationals will have the opportunity to gain safety qualifications through SaveFast Training Academy before learning continues in a real-work environment with Serco.

The services they provide will include tailored, on-site training courses and analysis of safety data. This initiative will provide insights and data essential for predicting and preventing workplace incidents, whether in office environments or on construction sites across cities, major developments or giga projects.

Mona Althagafi, Serco Saudi Arabia’s country director, said, “Our allegiance with SaveFast is instrumental in supporting the Kingdom’s aspiration for a safer and more skilled workforce, in line with Vision 2030’s ambitious goals. This partnership underscores our commitment to the government’s efforts in enhancing the nation’s human capital and ensuring the safety and welfare of all individuals in the workplace is paramount.”

Mania Hossaini, CEO of SaveFast Training Academy said, “The collaboration between Serco and SaveFast opens a new chapter in vocational excellence, delivering bespoke training programmes that address the specific needs of the Saudi employment sector. Our focus goes beyond imparting knowledge; it’s about instilling confidence in the Saudi workforce to be able to operate with the highest standards of safety and efficiency. Through this synergy, we are setting new benchmarks for workforce readiness, essential for the dynamic growth envisioned by Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030.”
