Employers know that successful employment and retention of human capital in an institution is vital to securing future success.

Although the culture of benefits plans as an incentive base for a stronger long-term employment relationship is widely established throughout much of the world, it has only recently reached certain Middle Eastern jurisdictions. These jurisdictions are still in the first phase of evaluating these new changes in the employment environment leading to the use and development of various benefit structures including stock option plans, employee stock ownership plans, individual equity plans and stock purchase plans.

We work with clients from a wide range of sectors to assist with local, international and cross-border employment issues. In a world where borders are broken down, we regularly assist foreign and local companies in labor matters across the region, from hiring to benefit plans to end of service matters, whether in Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Bahrain, Lebanon and other countries and whatever nationalities involved.

We represent a diverse range of employers from Fortune 500 companies to family businesses, public entities to private companies, and from manufacturers to service and financial institutions. We counsel clients in drafting employment contracts, services and consultancy agreements and advise numerous companies on immigration, taxation, personnel regulations, employee compensation, social security and human resources policies.

This large client base, coupled with our experienced attorneys gives our labor practice the means to assist you and provide quality service in all aspects of labor and employment law.
