Cases of Terminating a Fixed-Term Employment Contract and Key Conditions
The termination of a fixed-term employment contract occurs when the agreed-upon contract period ends, or by mutual agreement of the parties not to renew it. It can also be terminated prematurely according to specific conditions. For the employer, termination cases include employee misconduct or breach of the contract, while the employee has the right to terminate if their rights are violated or they face mistreatment. Compensation is required for both parties in case of unjust termination, and contracts are formally terminated through the "Qiwa" platform in Saudi Arabia to ensure rights are upheld according to labor laws.
