Document background
The Exit Letter To Employee is a crucial document required under Saudi Arabian employment law that formally documents the conclusion of an employment relationship. It serves as an official record required by various authorities, including the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development (MHRSD) and the General Organization for Social Insurance (GOSI). The document is particularly important in Saudi Arabia's employment landscape, where it's necessary for visa cancellation (for expatriate workers), processing end-of-service benefits, and facilitating new employment opportunities. The Exit Letter must include specific information mandated by Saudi Labor Law, such as employment duration, position held, and reason for termination. It's commonly used during employee transitions, company restructuring, or when employees resign or are terminated, and plays a vital role in ensuring compliance with local labor regulations while protecting both employer and employee interests.
