Course overview
Healthcare in Saudi Arabia operates under an interconnected set of rules: the Labor Law and its regulations, the Health Professions Practice Law, Saudi Commission for Health Specialties requirements, Saudization decisions and the Social Insurance Law. A gap in a contract, a licence or a shift roster can turn into a violation, a labour dispute or a patient-safety risk.
This course gives supervisors and HR officers in hospitals, medical centres and clinics a practical framework — from Labor Law foundations and healthcare workforce structure, through contracts, working hours, pay and leave, Saudization, professional licensing and ending employment, to safety, anti-harassment and inspection readiness.
Every lesson starts with clear objectives and includes reference tables and worked examples from real healthcare settings. Each module ends with a short quiz, followed by a final assessment for your certificate.
