It should be noted that after reviewing your inquiry and legal scrutiny we would like to inform you that according the Saudi Law, and article (74), the employment contract shall be terminated in any of the following cases:
1-By mutual agreement of the Parties, provided that the worker's consent is given in writing;
2. Upon expiry of its term, unless it has been expressly or implicitly extended according to the provisions of this Law;
3. For the convenience of either party to an indefinite term contract, according to article (75)
4. Age of retirement - sixty years for workers and fifty-five years for women workers unless the parties agree to continue to work after this age, the retirement age may be reduced in cases of early retirement which provides it has to regulate the work. If the contract of employment is fixed-term, the period extends beyond the age of one in which case the contract ends with the expiry of its term.
5. Force majeure.
6 - Completion of the facility permanently.
7. Termination of the activity in which the worker is employed, unless otherwise agreed.
8. Any other condition provided for by another regulation
Article (75) If the contract is unlimited, the parties may terminate it on the basis of a legitimate reason that must be stated under a notice to the last party in writing before termination by a period specified in the contract, for a minimum of sixty days if the wage of the worker is paid monthly and not less than thirty days for others.
Article (76)
If the party that terminated the limited contract does not take into account the notice period in accordance with Article 75 of this system, it is obliged to pay the other party for the notice period equal amount of worker working for the deadline itself, unless the parties agree otherwise, unless the contract contains specific compensation in exchange for termination by one of the parties for an unlawful reason, the party shall be entitled by the termination of the contract compensation as follows:
1 - Pay fifteen days for each year of service of the worker, if the contract is unlimited
2 - The remaining period of the contract if the contract is limited.
3. Compensation referred to in paragraphs (1) and (2) of this Article shall not be less than two months' wages.
***Therefore, if the work contract is for a fixed term, then it does not need to notify the employer, but it is better to notify the employer of not wanting to renew it a month before the expiry of the contract period in order to avoid any obstacles if you want to change work
