In practice, employers can ensure that non-Saudi domestic workers meet non-competitive obligations by requiring foreign workers to transfer sponsorship to a new employer. All foreign workers must be sponsored to live and work in Saudi Arabia. They cannot transfer their sponsorship to another employer if they have not completed at least two years of continuous service with the existing employer and have received a letter from their existing employer in which they state that they do not object to the employee taking an alternative activity. To do this, there are solutions such as . B delays, although in most cases these restrictions must be relatively specific.

This is preferably only a preventive measure implemented by the employer to secure its operations. Hello allI Having a non-compete clause in my contract, I was a GM of a large international company, my contract also says that in case of conflict with Saudi law, Saudi law replaces the contract. So here`s my question, I was fired by them for no reason and I heard that the Saudi non-compete law only if the worker supports the law supports the employer, but if it terminates you, the non-competition is not valid. Especially since I`m over 60, and that`s what I`ve done my whole career, what a company is going to hire a 60-year-old man into a new career. Who has experience of this situation? In fact, I received an offer from a competitor and I don`t want to get started and get into trouble.

Hello, I resigned from my current company and transferred my Iqama to the new company.
