End of Service Benefits

You haven't stated the reason of leaving the job. If you are terminated under article 80 it is without EOS benefits.

Hi,

Just want to ask, when you got transferred from another sponsor, did you sign a contract with them? for how long was the contract?

Usually contract term should not exceed 2 years as per the Saudi Labor Law and once it is completed it can be renewed or become indefinite.

I can see that you are more or less 5 years working with your current sponsor and if you continue working with them having not signed any contract for a specified number of year/s aside from the first contract you signed with them, it will be considered as indefinite contract which is stated on:

Article 55-2 of the Saudi Labor Law "If the fixed-term contract incorporates a clause providing for its renewal for a similar term or specified term, the contract shall be renewed for the period agreed upon. If the contract is renewed for two consecutive terms if the original contract term and the renewal period amount to three years, whichever is less, and the two parties continue to implement it, the contract shall become an INDEFINITE TERM CONTRACT.

And as per the article 74-3 the termination of contract will be "at the discretion of either party in indefinite term contract.

And in Article 75  "if the contract is of an indefinite term, either party may terminate it for a valid reason to be specified in a written notice to be served to other party at least (30) Thirty  days (I think now it has been upgraded to 60 days notice) prior to the termination date if the worker is paid monthly and not less than (15) fifteen days for others.

If you do not have any valid reason to terminate your contract, you may not able to get your EOSB and worst the party who is harmed by such termination will be compensated as per the remaining term of the contract.

I do hope this may help to clear something on your process of terminating your contract to your sponsor.

Thanks for reply,

( Article "2" of the Saudi Labor Law laid down the definition of the "Continuous Service" as uninterrupted service of a worker for the same employer or his legal successor from the starting date of service. Therefore, your employment service is continuous from the first working day until the end of the employment service, and the worker's right shall be calculated based on actual term of employment service from the first working day until the last working day.)
