Data mismatches delay transfers as Health Holding prepares staff for its third wave

Health groups included in Saudi Arabia’s third transition wave have begun preparing employees to move to the Health Holding Company, with data checks at the center of the process.

Employees have been asked to review and update their records in the Mawared system. They must ensure that their full names and birth dates match their national identification documents, update their national addresses and complete their academic qualifications.

The recommendations also cover job titles, professional specialties, classification and registration for health practitioners. Employees have been told to verify their appointment dates, enter their names correctly in English, review nationality and other basic information, confirm their reporting manager and workplace, and add their 2025 performance evaluation.

Some health groups warned that missing or inconsistent information could delay the issuance of employment offers. It could also affect financial entitlements and the transition portfolio. They described accurate data as essential to protecting employees’ rights and ensuring a reliable transfer.

The Health Holding Company also said on its official X account that it does not impose fees on resident doctors for training at its facilities.
