The No Employment Contract is designed for use in Saudi Arabia when organizations need to engage independent contractors, consultants, or freelancers while maintaining clear legal separation from employment relationships. This document is crucial in the Saudi business environment where proper classification of working relationships is strictly regulated. It includes specific provisions required under Saudi Labor Law (Royal Decree No. M/51), Commercial Law, and Sharia principles to establish a legitimate independent contractor relationship. The agreement is particularly relevant in today's gig economy and project-based business environment, where companies frequently need specialized external expertise without creating permanent employment relationships. It helps both parties understand their rights, obligations, and the temporary or project-based nature of their professional relationship while ensuring compliance with local regulations.
