Saudi Icon’s biggest concerns during this expansion and how they overcame them
According to Sultan Kabbarah "Our first challenge was the disturbances that impact the salary process when a business is continuously expanding. Knowing that Bayzat is fully compliant with the Saudi labour system was comforting because we didn’t have to worry about the integration of our HR systems and social security transactions with the salary process, social security, wage protection files, health insurance, etc. The Bayzat platform ensured all our processes were already in line with KSA regulations.
Our second challenge was access and task assignment conflicts. Bayzat’s automated arrangement for all job tasks, defining the powers of each employee under his role, and allocating access rights in a fully automated way, helped us ten-fold."

Favorite Bayzat features
“Without hesitation; it is the employee's self-service. This feature facilitates operations between employees and human resource management, and at the same time makes it easier for managers to follow up on the performance and attendance of their teams. We saved a lot of effort, time and administrative burden. Putting our employees in control of their own personal records, leave, shifts, expense claims and more enabled a world-class experience.”
Employee benefits are our priority
Saudi Icon’s previous system did not include any additional benefits for employees, only the basic ones, which limited their growth and benefit offerings to employees, especially during tough economic times. However, Bayzat helped Saudi Icon provide customized benefits to their employees, financial, health and many other benefits, without worrying about additional expenses incurred to the business. Saudi Icon was able to enhance their employees' quality of life, nourish their work environment, boost employees' loyalty to their brand and raise work quality and productivity.
The bottom line
“To succeed in the Saudi market, an attractive work environment must be provided to employees. Bayzat helped us achieve this.”
