Saudi Arabia’s Education Ministry Launches Digital HR Tool
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is modernizing its government services through digital transformation, and the Ministry of Education is at the forefront. A new platform, the “Fares System,” is designed to streamline human resources processes for educators, offering easy access to essential information.
Annual Bonus Inquiry
The “Fares System” gives educators and administrators in educational institutions access to their annual bonus details. This service allows them to know their annual dues quickly and dependably without needing to visit human resources offices.
The annual bonus is a key financial right for those employed in the educational sector. This bonus is a recognition of effort throughout the academic year. It is added to the base salary annually and is managed according to specific performance and functional reports.
The “Fares” System Explained
The Ministry of Education initiated the Persia Self-Service System, an electronic system designed to be an interactive channel for employees to manage their administrative and financial tasks directly. The system offers a range of services including:
- Requesting vacations and approvals.
- Viewing salary statements.
- Inquiring about allowances and bonuses.
- Modifying personal data.
- Following up on annual promotions and bonuses.
How to Check Your Bonus
Employees can easily access this service through the following steps:
- Visit the Faris electronic system portal via the official link.
- Select “Enter Self-Service Service” on the homepage.
- Log in using your national ID number or username and password.
- Go to the “salaries and allowances” menu after logging in.
- Choose the “salary definition” service.
- Click on “annual bonus detection” to see your allowance details.
Enhancing the Work Environment
The annual bonus inquiry is part of a comprehensive initiative to improve the work environment and save time and effort. This feature addresses the needs of teachers and administrators seeking prompt and precise financial information, negating the need to visit departments in person.
The system also provides a unified link for simple access. Employees can use the following link: https://sshr.moe.gov.sa and then follow the steps mentioned above to complete their inquiry.
More Than Just Bonuses
The Fares system is a complete resource for managing employee affairs. It features many services, including applications for internal and external transport, balance of holidays inquiries, official electronic salary definitions, applying for approved training courses, and viewing promotion or assignment decisions.
Integration for Efficiency
To facilitate the process, the Ministry of Education has linked the Fares system with the “Unified Patriotic Poor” gateway. This allows logins using “Absher” data, which increases the service’s safety and ease of access.
A Move Towards Self-Management
This annual bonus inquiry service aligns with the Kingdom’s 2030 vision for digital transformation. Employees no longer require direct contact with administration to manage their financial affairs. Instead, they now have an electronic platform.
This platform supports data management. The Ministry of Education aims for enhanced transparency and a more productive educational setting. According to recent data, digital transformation initiatives like the Fares system have boosted efficiency by approximately 20% in similar sectors (Tech Industry Report).
