Compliance
Saudi Labour Law, GOSI, WPS, Nitaqat/Saudization, NDMO data residency, and UAE PDPL — what your HR system must do out of the box.
Compliance
Saudi labor law in operational practice — WPS file management and exception handling, GOSI calculations, Nitaqat planning, End-of-Service benefits, and the Hijri calendar realities that imported HRIS products trip over.

GOSI & WPS Compliance with U HR: A Saudi Employer's Guide
GOSI and WPS are the two Saudi payroll-compliance frameworks where Western HRIS platforms fail. U HR treats them as two outputs of a single configured payroll engine — Earnings & Deduction Rules, Working & Finance Info, payslip generation, and the Mudad-compatible SIF file — with a non-editable audit trail that MHRSD and GOSI auditors expect.
Saudization & Nitaqat Reporting with U HR
Nitaqat is not a raw Saudi-to-expat ratio but a weighted metric — by job category, salary band, and activity category. U HR's Organizations → Companies → Departments hierarchy enables correct per-entity computation, the Position Catalog carries the job-family weighting, and historical trends give auditors what they ask for.
