I have resigned from my job with the company here is Riyadh excercizing article (81) of Saudi Labor Law. My employer was insulting hence I submitted immediate resignation under article (81). But employer is not providing me final exit. They are asking me to serve for two years and give them cost of hiring me from my country. I have sent them related clauses that under circumstances I have resigned, I am not required to serve any notice period. Nor company is liable to deduct cost of hiring me from my home country. They are not replying me now nor giving me final exit.
What options can I exercise now. Should I go to ministory of labor or passport office?
Everyone here is scared of time it will take to settle through labor office. It may take up to 2 years.
Is there anyway I can get final exit faster even though if I am banned to return back to KSA I don't have any issue.
Looking forward for your valuable advice.
Employer not giving final exit after resignation
Amnesty period is going on you can go. Just visit jawajat office and take the more information from there go back your home.
Thank you Mazid Ali for your reply. But just loud thinking. Amensty scheme is only for illegal expats. Does it cover my case??
Amenesty may not apply on your case. The best way to settle the issue with your company directly. Labor office may be an option when dispute is of sufficient amount (above 20, 25 thoussnds). Otherwise don't waste long trail time for small benefits.
Yes, as per my information it covers both cases illegal and other person who has iqama. I was in Pakistan Legal Affairs department they told that you need letter from Embassy and they will guide you to the airport or deportation center from they separate people with iqama and without iqama, you may go to section for iqama. Its better to go back, there is no humanity here.
brother, I am in same situation...not paid for 4 consecutive months..filed casein labor court but its too much tme consuming...are you sure that people with valid iqama can get final exit? please can you further guide on it to whom should I contact?
You can contact 19911 Labor court ( Ministry of Labor) , they will guied you what to do.

Dear sir, who is responsible for giving Final Exit after case filed in labor court. How much time will take for this process?
Very horrifying to hear all this.
How can the employer in any respectable society do such a thing?
What is the exact nature of your profession? Is this a local firm or a Multinational? Public sector company?
Really, frightening if all this is true.
May Allah help you and find a way out for you and your family.
Sorry again.

I got my exit from jawasat cause my employer doesnt like to giv me exit way back 2016. before that I file case against him at saudi labor year 2015 because of too much violation on the contract, the case finished May 2016 at lower court. then he refile case against me also of breech of contract cause I did not finish 2 yrs. The case run for 2 long yrs, then amnesty comes and I went back to jawasat for the exit.. during when I try to get exit thru amnesty my first exit appear on the system and that is the exit they did let me to use. Now, how to know if I am ban or not in saudi? Btw I hav horoob and I pay the penalty thats why the jawasat gave me exit before (2016)
