RIYADH — The Saudi Human Resources Development Fund (Hadaf) has deposited more than SR379 million ($100 million) in the bank accounts of beneficiaries for May.

The beneficiaries number over 253,000 and are registered with the Hafiz unemployment scheme, the Saudi Press Agency (SPA) said citing a report from Hadaf.

The number of people registered with the Hafiz unemployment program had reached 139,980, while the figure for the difficulty finding employment scheme stood at 113,821.
