BaghdadiLaw’s experience in claims for unpaid annual leave pay in Saudi Arabia
BaghdadiLaw brings nearly seven decades of legal practice, since its founding in 1957, to unpaid leave compensation claims, with detailed knowledge of reconciling accrued entitlement, leave taken, approvals and the pay basis used in the calculation. “Unpaid leave” can mean agreed absence without salary, withheld pay for approved paid leave or an unused annual-leave balance at departure. These are different Saudi employment questions. Identify which period and type of leave is disputed before treating the amount as a single leave-compensation claim.
The Labour Law leave provisions govern covered workers and distinguish annual leave from agreed unpaid leave. The final-account analysis should use the correct classification and actual balance rather than converting all absences into one monetary entitlement. Check whether recorded leave was actually taken and whether overlapping holidays or another leave category were counted consistently. A payroll deduction alone does not identify the correct leave type.
We agree the work your matter needs: Correct the ledger, seek payment of wrongly withheld paid leave or assess the eligible unused balance at termination. The deliverable is agreed for your file: A period-by-period leave reconciliation explaining accrual, use, agreed unpaid periods and any resulting claim.

Before requesting advice on claims for unpaid annual leave pay in Saudi Arabia
Is every unused leave day payable during employment?+
Distinguish taking accrued leave during employment from settling an eligible unused balance when employment ends. The leave type, approvals and applicable rules determine the answer; an agreed unpaid absence is not automatically paid annual leave.
What if the employer’s balance differs from mine?+
Compare the opening balance, accrual dates and each deduction. The difference should be traced to entries rather than answered by choosing one total.
Does a leave request prove approval?+
Keep the response and any scheduling record. A request and an approved period are different records.
