Document background
The Fixed Term Employment Agreement is a essential document used in Saudi Arabia when establishing employment relationships for a specific duration or project. This agreement type is particularly common in project-based industries, for expatriate employment, or when companies require temporary expertise. The document must comply with Saudi Labor Law, including recent amendments, and incorporate mandatory provisions regarding working conditions, benefits, and termination procedures. It serves as a comprehensive contract that outlines employment terms while ensuring compliance with local regulations, Saudization requirements, and Sharia principles. The agreement is crucial for protecting both employer and employee rights, providing clear documentation for work permit processes, and establishing transparent employment terms for a defined period.
