Document background
The Employee Separation Notice is a critical document required under Saudi Arabian employment law when terminating any employment relationship, whether through resignation, termination, or mutual agreement. This document ensures compliance with the Saudi Labor Law (Royal Decree No. M/51) and related regulations, which mandate specific procedures and documentation for employment termination. The notice must include essential information such as termination date, notice period, end-of-service benefits, and final settlement details. It serves multiple purposes: officially documenting the separation, protecting both parties' rights, ensuring proper handover of responsibilities and company property, and facilitating final settlements. The document is also crucial for reporting to the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development and maintaining proper employment records as required by Saudi law.
