The importance of documenting employment contracts on the Qiwa platform
Learn about the importance of documenting employment contracts electronically and the consequences of not documenting
Documenting employment contracts electronically via the Qiwa platform has become mandatory for all establishments in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. This measure aims to protect the rights of all parties and regulate the labor market.
Why is electronic documentation important?
- Protecting the rights of the employer and the employee alike
- Providing an official reference in the event of labor disputes
- Adherence to the regulations of the Ministry of Human Resources
- Avoid fines and violations
Steps to document the contract:
1. Log in to the Qiwa platform with the facility’s account
2. Choose a contract management service
3. Create a new contract and enter the worker’s data
4. Determine the terms of the contract (salary, duration, job title)
5. Sending the contract to the worker for approval
Penalties resulting from non-documentation:
Failure to document employment contracts exposes the facility to financial fines that may reach thousands of riyals, in addition to its negative impact on the facility’s classification in Nitaqat.
