MHRSD launches Initiative to appropriate Absent From Work standing in Saudi Arabia
The Ministry of Human Sources and Social Growth (MHRSD) in Saudi Arabia introduced on Monday a brand new initiative by means of the Qiwa platform to appropriate the standing {of professional} staff marked as “absent from work.” This program begins on September 18, 2025, and permits affected staff to legally switch their sponsorship to a brand new employer.
The initiative applies to a number of instances:
➤ Employees whose standing modified to “absent from work” after the 60-day grace interval for being away from the job.
➤ Employees whose standing modified after their contract ended or was terminated.
➤ Expatriates with absence stories filed earlier than the launch of this initiative.
To qualify, the brand new employer should pay any late charges for the employee’s allow. Additionally, the employee will need to have spent at the very least 12 steady months within the Kingdom earlier than leaving the job or earlier than the contract expired.
