Employment termination
Termination process
Saudi Arabian labour law provides a lot of leeway for employers to let workers go, but compensation must be provided if a termination is unjustified.
Notice period
Notice periods range from 30 days for fixed-term contracts, to 60 days for indefinite-term contracts.
Severance pay
Employees who’re being let go without just cause are entitled to 15 days’ pay for each of the first five years of employment plus a month’s pay for each subsequent year.
Probation periods
Probation periods are typically limited to 90 days but can last for up to 180 days with the consent of both parties.
