Profiling will certainly enable the creation of risk profiles based on various data points, thereby helping to distinguish between legitimate workers and individuals with malicious intent.\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\u2018&#8217;For us to successfully implement efficient profiling, it is also important to synergize with our traditional rulers, who can attest to the character of their subjects, many of whom are likely to form a significant portion of the workforce undergoing profiling.
