Yearly Ajir Service Agreements for Saudi Industrial Sites
Plan yearly industrial service scope, supervisor coverage, competence, shutdown changes and independent authorization calendars in Saudi Arabia.
Separate steady operations from shutdown packages
A plant may need recurring production support, material handling or maintenance services alongside defined shutdown tasks. Give each package its own role profiles, equipment, permitted duties, supervisor coverage and acceptance owner. Do not treat specialist shutdown work as a casual extension of a general helper roster.
The yearly agreement should describe how new packages are proposed, assessed and approved. Name the owner of equipment isolation, permits to work and return-to-service decisions. Applicable technical and safety requirements remain separate from the Ajeer transaction.
Keep the annual review measurable
Measure the agreed outputs, attendance, supervisory availability, safety exceptions and unresolved work. Use an approved change record for volume, site, task or worker changes. Review the authorization calendar before deciding that an assignment can continue.
At contract review, distinguish persistent service needs from tasks that have ended. Reconcile tools, access and final records for completed packages. Renewal requires review of the actual selected route and current conditions; a financial-year extension is not automatic official permission.
Ajir contracts: select the actual Ajeer service
Ajir, Ajeer and أجير are common ways of referring to the Saudi Ajeer platform. The official service directory distinguishes Ajeer Contracting, which regulates the presence of an outsourcing establishment’s employees at a beneficiary worksite, from Ajeer Secondment, which lends an employee’s services to another establishment for a defined period. The correct service depends on the actual arrangement and current eligibility.
HRSD’s outsourcing rules announcement of 6 November 2025 describes specified tasks performed by expatriate workers already residing in Saudi Arabia under the direct supervision of the service-providing establishment through Ajeer. A commercial manpower agreement does not by itself establish worker authorization. Confirm the selected service and approved record before work begins.
Monthly invoicing and a yearly service agreement are commercial planning choices. Neither proves that a permit can run for that whole period. Check the current service-specific limits, eligible activities, parties and worker conditions on the official platform. Do not treat temporary work authorization as a permanent employee transfer.
From employer request to authorized site work
First define the service outputs, legal beneficiary establishment, exact site, tasks, roles, quantities by shift, operating calendar and intended assignment window. Name the employer decision-maker and the provider supervisor. Separate service delivery from candidate recruitment: selecting someone for a role does not authorize an assignment.
The responsible establishments then check the relevant Ajeer service and current eligibility through their authorized access. Prepare the commercial scope, underlying employment responsibilities and required platform records; follow the current official workflow for acceptance and permit issuance where applicable. Use the actual transaction status rather than assuming that a quotation, signed purchase order or payment confirms permission.
Before the first shift, reconcile the named worker, provider, beneficiary, occupation, location and dates with the approved record. Complete competence checks, induction and access clearance. During delivery, retain proportionate attendance, supervision and change records. Review replacements, extensions and closure through the applicable process before continuing affected work.
Why discuss the requirement with AL AHAD GROUP
Use AL AHAD GROUP’s employer enquiry route to put the requirement into a clear business brief. The useful starting point is the actual work: tasks, role quantities, worksite, shifts, duration and responsibilities. The linked workforce and hiring guides help organize that information before a commercial or recruitment response is discussed.
Assess the response against your approved scope and the documents for the actual contracting parties. Ask who is responsible for supervision, lawful authorization, wages, timekeeping, worker support, access and changes. Confirm capability, availability, rates and start conditions in writing for this requirement; the website is not evidence of a government approval or a ready-to-deploy worker pool.

The official Ajeer directory and HRSD announcement support the service distinctions and outsourcing framework explained here. The operating checklists, example briefs and commercial comparisons are planning recommendations, not quotations of government requirements. Recheck the current conditions for the selected service before making a transaction. No government fee, processing time, approval or worker availability is promised.
Employer questions
Does a yearly commercial agreement guarantee a yearly Ajeer permit?
No. The valid period and eligibility depend on the current selected Ajeer service and approved record, separately from commercial duration.
What should an employer include in the request?
Provide the legal company contact, defined tasks, exact site, role quantities, shifts, proposed term, responsibility split and decision-maker. Confirm actual capability and authorization before work.
