How TASC Helps Businesses Build Workforce Teams Ready for Expo Riyadh 2030

Scheduled from October 1, 2030, to March 31, 2031, Expo 2030 Riyadh will attract over 40 million visitors and 195 countries, marking one of the largest global events ever hosted in Saudi Arabia. With over 1 billion expected virtual interactions, Expo 2030 is set to dramatically reshape the Kingdom’s workforce needs in line with its Vision 2030 goals. This global event demands significant transformation in workforce strategies across the Kingdom.

Established in Dubai in 2007, TASC Outsourcing has evolved into a leading staffing and managed services provider across the GCC region. Recognized by prestigious awards like the Sheikh Khalifa Excellence Award and earning Superbrand status, TASC offers nearly two decades of workforce expertise, with a robust presence in the MENA region, including Saudi Arabia. TASC provides comprehensive services including staffing solutions, managed services, payroll outsourcing, compliance management, digital workforce solutions, and specialized tech talent acquisition.

In this blog, we will talk about how TASC is strategically supporting businesses to tackle Expo 2030’s workforce requirements.

1. Agile, Project-Based Staffing.

Expo 2030 calls for adaptable, scalable staffing strategies across key sectors like hospitality, logistics, security, and digital services. For a six-month, high-intensity event, permanent hiring models aren’t practical.

The Kingdom’s job market is also undergoing significant shifts as Expo approaches, from flexible work models to increased localization. Staying ahead of these trends is essential to building a responsive workforce. Learn more in our blog: Riyadh Expo 2030: The 5 Biggest Shifts Coming to the Saudi Job Market.

TASC addresses these challenges by enabling project-based hiring at scale. Our support includes:

• Access to pre-vetted talent pools for rapid deployment
• Full employment lifecycle management: contracts, onboarding, payroll, and offboarding
• Guaranteed compliance with Saudi labour regulations

2. Managed Payroll and PRO Services

Expo 2030's massive scale requires not just talent acquisition but also seamless back-end support to handle payroll, visa processing, and employee documentation efficiently.

TASC supports companies by:

• Managing end-to-end payroll processing in full compliance with local laws
• Providing outsourced PRO (Public Relations Officer) services for visa, license, and immigration support
• Ensuring timely salary disbursement, GOSI registration, and accurate record keeping

These services reduce administrative burdens, lower compliance risks, and freeup internal teams to focus on core operations during the high-pressure Expo period.

3. Bridging Global Talent Gaps.

The scale of Expo 2030 requires expertise from architects, sustainability consultants, system integrators, and global event planners. However, Saudi Arabia’s visa and compliance requirements can be complex.

TASC simplifies global talent acquisition by:

• Managing visa and work permit processes.
• Handling international compliance, onboarding, and payroll setup.
• Streamlining the entry of global experts into the Saudi workforce seamlessly.

Example: Recently, TASC enabled a major global event planning firm to place 150 international specialists within weeks, fully compliant with local regulations.

4. Digital Workforce Management via TASC360.

Manual management of Expo 2030’s extensive workforce is impractical. TASC provides a digital solution through TASC360, their proprietary workforce management platform.

TASC360 delivers:

• Scheduling systems.
• Digital onboarding tools.
• Compliance tracking (MHRSD, GOSI, Nitaqat).

Clients utilizing TASC360 have reported up to a 60% reduction in administrative workload and nearly eliminated payroll errors.

5. Outcome-Based Workforce Models.

Expo 2030 operations focus heavily on outcomes and KPIs rather than simple headcount or hours worked.

TASC supports outcome-driven staffing solutions, providing:

• Measurable performance-based staffing arrangements.
• Accountability for tangible results in event operations, visitor experience, and logistics.

6. Accelerating Tech Talent with AIQU.

Expo 2030 emphasizes digital innovation, including smart infrastructure, AI integration, cybersecurity, visitor apps, and data analytics.

Through AIQU, TASC’s specialized tech vertical, companies gain:

• Access to vetted pools of developers, cybersecurity experts, data specialists, and cloud engineers.
• Accelerated hiring timelines, often reducing time-to-hire from months to weeks.
• Comprehensive visa and payroll support tailored to Expo-specific tech demands.

7. Compliance & Saudization Expertise.

Compliance with Saudi labour regulations, Saudization (Nitaqat) targets, and Vision 2030 localization goals is critical for Expo-related staffing.

TASC ensures compliance through:

• Regulatory audits and continuous tracking.
• Strategic support for Saudization, emphasizing youth and women's employment.
• Management of compliance documentation and inspection schedules.
• Seamless adherence to cross-border hiring regulations.
