Document background
A Promotion Offer Letter is a crucial document used when an organization wishes to formally promote an existing employee to a new position with increased responsibilities and/or compensation. This document is particularly important in Saudi Arabia, where employment relationships are strictly regulated under the Saudi Labor Law and MHRSD guidelines. The letter serves multiple purposes: it officially documents the promotion decision, outlines changes in employment terms, ensures compliance with local labor laws, and protects both employer and employee interests. The document should be prepared when an employee is selected for advancement, following internal approval processes and before the effective date of the promotion. It typically precedes any formal announcement of the promotion and requires acceptance by the employee to become effective.
