Flame_bringer ... they are forcing GF to take these guys to cover up the mess, the money will also be coughed up by GF as Tamkeen needs to show something for the BD4.8. Do the math: 200 trainees x BD200/mnth = 40,000 BD/mnth = BD480,000 / annum for min 2 years to cover up the mess ... money that GF desperately needs ...
Now what they will do with them is disperse them over the engineering departments, not just maintenance .... and in 2 years they can trim the group under another restructuring plan!
They get away with it by involving so many entities: GF, GT, GAA, Mumtalakat, Tamkeen .. all are involved, knowingly or unknowingly, so if you rat them out you rat out the entire conglomerate, and who wants that! So they end up covering the mess and sometimes bad guys are asked to resign with a good package to take home too ... the thing to watch is if GAA is asked to provide the training to these apprentices while in GF, that will be the cherry on top of the cake
