Solutions · Saudi Arabia
Run compliant Saudi payroll from day one. Calculate GOSI contributions, generate Mudad payroll files, track Saudization (Nitaqat) obligations, validate Iqama and Saudi IBAN details, and give employees an Arabic experience — with Hijri and Gregorian calendars side by side.
Why Saudi Arabia
Saudi payroll teams juggle GOSI contributions, Mudad deadlines, Nitaqat quotas, and Arabic communications on top of everything else. WorkMind absorbs that complexity: contributions calculate to the law, statutory files generate on the day payroll closes, Saudization ratios are visible in real time, and Arabic-speaking employees get an app that reads the right way — while HR keeps a single system of record across every entity.
Built-in for Saudi Arabia
Not a bolt-on. Not a spreadsheet on the side. Country capabilities live inside the same payroll, HR and self-service that runs everything else.
General Organization for Social Insurance (GOSI) contributions are calculated on every payroll run — SANED (unemployment insurance) for Saudi nationals, occupational hazard for non-Saudis, and the correct employer/employee split by nationality.
Mudad is the official payroll-protection platform in Saudi Arabia. WorkMind exports the Mudad-compliant file straight from a payroll run, validated before upload so first-time acceptance is the norm, not the exception.
See your Saudization ratio in real time and forecast how new hires and exits will move it. Nitaqat colour bands are surfaced against your CR activity so HR can plan against the requirement, not react to it.
Iqama numbers (foreign residents) and Saudi IBANs (SA + 22 digits) are validated on entry — no more failed payroll or GOSI runs because a digit was wrong. Sensitive IDs are encrypted at rest and exposed only to roles that need them.
Every employee-facing screen — payslip, leave request, timesheet, self-service — is available in Arabic with proper right-to-left layout. Hijri and Gregorian calendars sit side by side; employees see leave and payroll dates in the calendar they use.
End-of-service is calculated per Saudi Labour Law — half a month for the first five years and one month per year thereafter, prorated for partial years — with cause-of-termination and eligibility rules that reflect the current statute.
How it fits your month
New joiners are added with Iqama or national ID, passport and Saudi IBAN — each validated on save, encrypted at rest, and surfaced in Arabic or English for the employee.
Your Nitaqat ratio moves with every hire and exit. Forecast the impact of open roles before you offer, and get warnings before you drift out of your colour band.
Close the cycle, review validations, and export the Mudad file plus the GOSI contribution report in one action. Payslips land in the employee app, in Arabic or English.
When someone leaves, end-of-service, unused leave and final settlement are calculated to the day per Saudi Labour Law — with a full paper trail for audit.
Statutory compliance
WorkMind mirrors the statutory rules Saudi employers work under — so payroll teams stop maintaining spreadsheets of rules that change under them.
GOSI contributions calculated per SANED and occupational-hazard rules, with the correct split for Saudi and non-Saudi employees.
Mudad payroll-protection file generation, validated per HRSD and Saudi Central Bank requirements.
Saudization (Nitaqat) tracking with real-time ratio, colour-band forecasts and multi-CR views.
End-of-service calculation per Saudi Labour Law — including proration and cause-of-termination handling.
Statutory leave types (annual, sick, Hajj, maternity, paternity) with the accrual and eligibility rules the law requires.
Iqama, national ID and Saudi IBAN validation to catch data errors before they reach the bank, GOSI or Mudad.
Questions
Yes. Payroll runs export a Mudad-compliant file in the format required by HRSD and Saudi banks. Employee records — Iqama or national ID, IBAN, basic wage, allowances — are validated before the file is written, so Mudad accepts the run first time.
GOSI contributions are calculated on every payroll run using the correct rates for Saudi nationals (SANED + pension) and non-Saudis (occupational hazard). The employer and employee splits are handled automatically, and reports are ready for GOSI submission.
Yes. Your Nitaqat ratio moves in real time as employees are hired, transferred or exit. You can forecast the effect of open roles before offering, run multi-CR views, and get warnings before you drift out of your colour band.
Yes. The employee app, payslips, leave requests, notifications and self-service screens are fully available in Arabic with right-to-left layout. Hijri and Gregorian calendars sit side by side so employees see dates in whichever they use.
GCC-region hosting is a deployment option for Saudi and wider Gulf customers who need data to stay close to home. The same product, security controls and audit trails apply — deployment topology adapts to your data-residency policy.
Iqama (and passport and visa) expiry dates are tracked per employee, with configurable reminders to HR and the employee before renewal is due. Reports surface everyone whose documents are due within the next 30, 60 or 90 days.
