It is through the Saudi Arabian law, the relationship of employment between the
employer and that of the employee is being administered systematically by that of the labor law
and by the workmen’s law (Acharya, Baghai & Subramanian, 2013). The Saudi Arabian
Ministry of labor pronounced a refurbishment of the labor law that tends to incorporate thirty-
eight alterations to its constitutional requirements (Andrias, 2016). The alternations were
accepted by the HRH King Salman. In the general sense, the alternations were being made with
the aim to boost the Saudization and even to enhance the rights of the women in general
(Blackett, 2019). On the other hand, some part of the law is meant for the favor for the
employers as well.
One of the biggest advantages of the labor law of the Saud Arabia is that it provides the
workers within the private as well as within the public sector to have the right to work as per the
fair labor standards (Daubler, 2016). Under the condition of the law, employers tend to have an
equal number of rights and privileges in relation to all aspects of the employment and
environment of the work. One of the benefit of the fair labor standard is that it gives all sorts of
advantages to the workers through the regulation of the employment issue like that of the federal
minimum wage, payment which is done when work is being done on the basis of the overcome
and even on the record-keeping responsibilities of the employer (Davidov, Freedland&
Kountouris, 2015). It is the responsibility of the employer to remain very much obedient with
the laws of the applicable employment in order to avoid any sort of violations in relation to that
of the civil and criminal activities . On the other hand, it can be said that it also provides with
advantage to the workers who are not from the Saudi Arabia (Galvin, 2019). The workers who
do not belong to the Saudi Arabia can also work in the Saudi Arabia when they have the
approval from beforehand from the Ministry of labor and even from the ministry of the interior.

Like the Gulf Cooperation council countries, Saudi Arabia tends to have a sponsorship system
(Gold, 2014) This indicates that the emigrant workers can actually enter, work and even leave
the Saudi Arabia with the assistance or the permission that is being taken. It must, however, be
noted that the people who come to the Saudi Arabia must have a sponsorer which should be
either a national or international company of the Saudi Arabia (Maira, 2014). A non- Saudi
national might be employed for only a consistent term in response to the duration of the
allowance of his or her work. One of the advantages of the labor law of the Saudi Arabia is that it
helps women to work but only in a few specific areas. The women must be working in a
completely different sector to that of the men. It must, however, be ensured that specific facilities
are being provided to the women (Mizushima, 2017). However, there are certain regulations
that are being regulated in regards to women who are working in some specific sectors. The
labor law in Saudi Arabia also ensures that in regulating the minimum amount of wage that is
permitted by an employer to pay to its employees. It wills the workers in understanding the
amount of money that they are going to get after doing a specific kind of a work on a particular
day or month. The labor law of the Saudi Arabia also ensures a rational amount of working hours
for the employees (O'Kane, 2013). This is more suitable and is considered to be of great
advantage for the workers who are young and are not experienced. There is a special limitation
of working hours of the youth workers as they are permitted to work on the school as well as on
the no- school days. One of the biggest opportunities is that it will be boosting small businesses
and productive families. Enterprises which are small and even medium-sized are considered as
the important agents of economic growth. They tend to establish jobs and even support
innovations (Rajkhan, 2014). They are also responsible for the boosting of exports. Small
businesses or farms are not the major sources of job opportunities in comparison to the advanced
