Labour & Employment Law Lawyers in Riyadh
Riyadh is home to a large number of companies, organisations and small and medium-sized businesses, so disputes between workers and employers there take many forms: from claims for late wages and end-of-service benefits, to unlawful dismissal, disputes over leave and overtime, and disagreements about the terms of the employment contract or a non-compete clause. A labour lawyer can read the contract and correspondence and identify which rights can be claimed before any action is taken.
A labour dispute usually begins with a request for amicable settlement through the "Wudi" platform run by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development (MHRSD). If the dispute is not resolved, the claim is referred to the labour courts, and many procedures can be followed online through Najiz. A lawyer helps draft the request, estimate the claims and represent the client at hearings, whether the client is a worker or a business.

FAQs about labour & employment law lawyers in Riyadh
I work at a large company's head office in Riyadh and the agreed commissions and incentives were not paid. How can a labour lawyer help?
The lawyer reviews your employment contract, the company's approved incentive policy and any correspondence showing that targets were met, to determine whether the commission forms part of your wage or is a discretionary bonus. On that basis they draft and value the claim before a settlement request is filed on Wudi.
Can an executive in Riyadh challenge the non-compete clause in their contract?
A non-compete clause is assessed on whether it is written and limited in duration, place and type of work, and whether it is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of the employer. A lawyer can evaluate the validity and scope of the clause in your case before you accept a new job offer, without this guaranteeing any particular outcome.
Is end-of-service gratuity calculated differently for a resignation than for termination by the employer?
Yes, the way the employment relationship ends and the length of service both affect the amount of gratuity due. It is therefore advisable to show a resignation or termination letter to a lawyer before signing it, because its wording may change what you can claim.
How do I document overtime hours before claiming payment for them?
Keep attendance records and any messages or emails asking you to work after hours or on rest days. The lawyer uses this evidence to establish the number of hours and estimate their value when drafting the claim.
