Saudi women emerge as frontline force in serving Hajj pilgrims
ISLAMABAD, May 19 (APP): Saudi women are playing an increasingly prominent role in managing Hajj operations and serving millions of pilgrims, becoming a key part of the Kingdom’s modern Hajj system under the goals of Saudi Vision 2030.
According to SPA, Saudi women are now actively contributing across field, administrative, technical and healthcare sectors within one of the world’s largest and most complex operational and service environments.
Female personnel are working round the clock in crowd management, awareness and guidance services, healthcare and emergency response, digital operations, translation, control rooms, operations centers and logistical support during the Hajj 1447 AH season.
At Masjid al-Haram and the holy sites, women staff are helping organize women’s prayer areas, guiding female pilgrims, answering religious and organizational inquiries and delivering awareness content in multiple languages through digital platforms and smart screens.
The report said the growing role of Saudi women reflected the Kingdom’s broader developmental transformation and investment in national talent to improve services for pilgrims arriving from different parts of the world.
Authorities said Saudi women have become active partners in shaping the modern Hajj experience through roles combining humanitarian service, operational professionalism and organizational efficiency.
