Employment in Saudi Arabia operates through the Kafala sponsorship system, where an employer holds legal responsibility for a foreign worker's presence and status. Hiring typically requires an Iqama (residence permit) tied to a specific employer, and contract terms are negotiated between employer and worker before arrival. Most positions are full-time, with standard hours set by sector—typically 40-48 hours weekly, though some industries operate differently. Foreign nationals need employer sponsorship; Saudi nationals can work across sectors without this requirement. Contracts specify duration, salary structure, benefits, and obligations. The working year follows the Gregorian calendar with Friday-Saturday weekends, though the official week runs Saturday to Wednesday. Pay cycles vary by employer but typically occur monthly, with deductions including sponsorship fees and social security contributions.
