Document background
The Fixed Term Employment Contract is essential for organizations operating in Saudi Arabia that require temporary or project-based employment arrangements. This document is specifically designed to comply with Saudi Labor Law requirements while providing clarity on the temporary nature of employment. It's commonly used for project-specific roles, seasonal work, or when organizations need flexibility in workforce planning. The contract must be drafted in Arabic (with optional English translation) and includes mandatory provisions required by Saudi authorities regarding working hours, leave entitlements, and end of service benefits. It's particularly relevant for businesses participating in specific projects, handling seasonal increases in workforce, or engaging specialized expertise for a defined period. The document ensures compliance with local regulations while protecting both employer and employee interests throughout the fixed employment term.
