🕊️ Saudi Arabia’s Qiwa platform has introduced a 60-day grace period for foreign workers after employment termination.
-
📜 During this period, employers cannot immediately report a worker as “absent from work” if their residency permit (Iqama) is still valid.
-
🔄 Workers have the option to transfer to a new employer, re-sign, or leave the country within the grace period.
-
⚠️ If the worker takes no action after 60 days, the system will automatically change their status to “absent from work.”
-
🧑💼 This update aims to protect workers from sudden legal issues and gives them more time to navigate their next steps.
-
📲 All transitions can be made online via the Qiwa Individuals platform, ensuring transparency and efficiency.
-
📁 Workers can now access employment certificates and salary details directly through their Qiwa accounts.
-
🤝 The policy promotes fairer employer–employee practices by offering a structured timeline post-employment.
-
🧭 The change is part of Saudi Arabia’s broader efforts under Vision 2030 to modernize labor laws and support expats.
-
🌐 This 60-day window benefits both employers and foreign workers, improving flexibility and legal compliance.
