The Ministry of Tourism has authorized tourism entities to utilize the “Ajeer” platform for securing temporary staffing during peak periods. Managed by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development, “Ajeer” facilitates the high volume of hospitality and travel services required during busy seasons. To maintain legal compliance and contract integrity, the Ministry mandates that all seasonal or temporary workforce be formally registered through the platform. The “Ajeer” platform offers integrated and flexible solutions for entities to contract temporary workforce both during and outside peak seasons. It effectively connects tourism activities and facilities with local talent ready for short-term engagement through regulated and reliable contracts. Tourism accommodation facilities and other tourism entities can leverage the “Ajeer” platform to advertise seasonal or temporary vacancies. By utilizing specialized features like the “Tourism Seasons” service, businesses can efficiently scale their workforce during peak periods. This structured framework ensures that seasonal contracting is both flexible and streamlined to meet immediate human resource demands. On the other hand, the platform allows job seekers to explore and apply for openings online. By registering, users can obtain regulated temporary work permits, which strengthen contractual trust, ensure operational compliance, and safeguard the rights of both employers and employees. In this regard, the Ministry of Tourism has underscored that all tourism entities must refrain from contracting temporary or seasonal labor outside the “Ajeer” platform. To ensure full compliance with current regulations and avoid legal penalties, all temporary vacancies must be posted exclusively through this channel. Additionally, the Ministry advises job seekers to decline any temporary employment offers or contracts made outside “Ajeer” to protect their legal rights and remain in alignment with regulatory standards. The Ministry’s advisory comes as Makkah and Madinah prepare for peak demand during Ramadan and the approaching Hajj season. To ensure service excellence for pilgrims, the Ministry has stressed the necessity for tourism accommodation facilities to maintain sufficient manpower. The goal is to provide a seamless and high-quality stay for the pilgrims enriching their spiritual journey and enabling them to fulfill their religious rites comfortably and tranquilly.
