In the growing market in KSA, labor relationships are subject to complex and organized laws and regulations. Therefore, business owners and employees must be familiar with the Saudi Labor Law, meet Saudization requirements and contractual obligations, and deal with conflict settlement procedures neatly.

If you are a business owner seeking to safeguard your company and comply with labor laws and regulations, or if you are an employee looking to assert your rights, hiring a skilled and professional employment lawyer in KSA is essential.

Sadany & Partners Law Firm, based in Riyadh, offers comprehensive labor law services tailored to meet the needs of companies and individuals throughout Saudi Arabia.

Why You Need an Employment Lawyer in Saudi Arabia

The Saudi Labor rules and regulations stem from the Labor Law issued by Royal Decree No. M/51 and complemented by the ministerial regulations and resolutions issued by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development (MHRSD). Moreover, the reforms implemented under Vision 2030 have enhanced the labor market and introduced new complexities to employment activities.

Therefore, you should seek the help of a well-versed and experienced labor lawyer, who can support you in the following matters:

  • Preparing and revising employment contracts in accordance with the Saudi Labor Law.
  • Providing legal counsel on termination of service, layoffs, and end-of-service benefits to reduce potential risks as much as possible.
  • Achieving adherence to Saudization (Nitaqat) obligations.
  • Settling employment disagreements, whether by negotiation, conciliation, or litigation.
  • Handling internal investigations pertaining to misbehavior or harassment.
  • Preparing internal labor policies in line with legal requirements.
