Five monthly HR compliance tasks that can't wait

Payroll, wage protection, GOSI, Nitaqat and leave: a short list of what your company should get done every month.

Companies in Saudi Arabia deal with several government platforms for HR, each with its own deadlines and requirements. These are five tasks we recommend keeping on your monthly calendar.

1. Payroll and the wage protection file

Calculate salaries, allowances and deductions accurately, then upload the wage protection file through Mudad. Any gap between the payroll and the amounts actually transferred shows up quickly and needs explaining.

2. GOSI updates

Register new joiners, remove leavers and keep registered wages current. Out-of-date records affect contributions and employees' entitlements.

3. Contracts and Nitaqat on Qiwa

Document contracts digitally and watch your Saudization ratios continuously, not only when you need a service. A change in headcount can move your Nitaqat band.

4. Leave and end-of-service benefits

Track leave balances and accrue end-of-service benefits as you go, so a contract ending never brings a surprise liability.

5. Reviewing HR decisions

Any decision on pay, disciplinary action or termination should be checked against the Labour Law and your approved internal regulations before it is carried out.
