RIYADH: Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development has announced updated compliance requirements for documenting employment contracts through the Qiwa platform, raising the target compliance rate to 85 percent from April 30.
A second phase will increase the compliance rate to 90 percent by June 30, the Saudi Press Agency reported on Sunday.
The ministry said the compliance rate was calculated by comparing documented contracts with the total number of employee contracts at each establishment, enabling employers to monitor performance clearly and accurately.
The update is part of the ministry’s efforts to strengthen compliance with labor regulations, enhance transparency, and safeguard the rights of all parties to the contract.
The ministry urged all establishments to review undocumented contracts and complete documentation through the Qiwa platform to meet the required compliance rate and avoid any disruptions to services linked to compliance indicators.
