Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister (DPM/FM) Senator Mohammad Ishaq Dar on Wednesday called for a strategic overhaul to boost skilled labour exports.
The DPM chaired a high-level meeting to review Pakistan's Emigration, Overseas Employment, and Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) Policy, with a focus on aligning the country's workforce with global market demands, a DPM's Office news release said.
DPM Dar stressed the urgent need to invest in high-quality skill development, diversify into new employment sectors, and explore untapped international destinations for Pakistani workers.
He highlighted the importance of aligning Pakistan's human capital with international demand to increase foreign remittances, broaden employment avenues abroad, and improve the country's global economic footprint.
"The government is committed to upgrading skill development frameworks and expanding overseas employment opportunities. This will not only boost remittances but also enhance Pakistan's competitiveness on the global stage," said Dar.
