Expert HR management and industrial relations consultancy — protecting your operations, your workforce and your reputation.
Mansol Group has delivered comprehensive HR and industrial relations management services for over 15 years — covering payroll administration, social security compliance, community and labour relations, government liaison, head-hunting and HR consultancy for clients across the GCC, Pakistan and internationally. Led by a Chief People Officer with a Ph.D. in HR and global certifications, our HR capability is genuinely professional-grade.
Poor industrial relations and non-compliant HR practices are among the most underestimated project risks in the Oil & Gas and construction sectors. A workforce dispute, a payroll error or a social security lapse can halt work, damage client relationships and trigger regulatory consequences — often at the worst possible moment.
Mansol's HR and Industrial Relations Management service is designed to take that risk off your desk entirely. We handle payroll processing, statutory compliance, labour law adherence, grievance resolution, community relations and all government and administration liaison — leaving your project management team free to focus on engineering and delivery.
Our KSA operations are headed by Dr. Saqlain Sher, Chief People Officer — a Ph.D. and MBA-qualified HR leader with certifications including SHRM-SCP, SPHRI, MCIPD and PMP, and with experience spanning Saudi Bin Ladin Group, Descon Engineering, Doosan, PTCL and the National Bank of Pakistan. This is not generalist HR support — it is specialist industrial HR at the highest professional level.
Ph.D. & MBA in HR. Certified SHRM-SCP, SPHRI, MCIPD, PMP and Lead Auditor ISO 30414. Experience with Saudi Bin Ladin Group, Descon, Doosan, PTCL and the National Bank of Pakistan across GCC, Pakistan and Scotland.
Our HR leadership holds some of the most respected global HR certifications available — ensuring that the advice and management you receive is grounded in current international best practice, not guesswork.
Our HR and Industrial Relations service covers every dimension of workforce management — statutory, operational and strategic — for local projects, site-based teams and internationally deployed workforces.
For clients operating projects and corporate offices in Pakistan, Mansol provides a fully managed HR and manpower administration service — covering everything from payroll to statutory registrations, labour relations to government representation.
Our local HR management is not a bolt-on. It is a structured, compliant service underpinned by more than 15 years of operational experience across industrial, construction and corporate environments in Pakistan. We understand the regulatory landscape, the labour dynamics and the administrative requirements at both provincial and federal level.
Full payroll processing, accurate on-time salary disbursement and detailed record-keeping for all deployed and managed workers — across all grades and contract types.
EOBI, SESSI, PESSI and related statutory registrations and monthly contribution management — we handle all filings, inspections and compliance correspondence on the client's behalf.
Professional management of workforce relations, collective bargaining interfaces, grievance handling and community engagement — reducing labour conflict risk before it reaches the project.
Direct coordination with labour departments, local government offices and regulatory authorities — acting as an authorised representative of the client in all administrative matters.
Beyond operational HR, Mansol offers specialised executive search and HR strategy consultancy — helping clients find and retain senior-level talent and build HR functions that are genuinely fit for purpose in demanding industrial environments.
HR and industrial relations are disciplines where experience, credibility and professional standing matter enormously. Mansol brings all three — backed by a leadership team with real credentials and a 15-year operational track record in some of the most complex workforce environments in the world.
In over 15 years and 35,000+ worker deployments, Mansol has maintained a record of zero active violations on the Saudi Wage Protection System. Our HR management is not reactive — it is structured, documented and consistently executed to keep your project and your reputation protected.
Whether you need full payroll and compliance management for a local project, industrial relations support for a site workforce, executive search for a senior appointment, or strategic HR consultancy for your KSA operations — Mansol's HR team is ready to engage.
Our local HR management service covers salary processing and on-time payroll disbursement, social security compliance (EOBI, SESSI, PESSI), industrial and community relationship management, grievance handling, and direct liaison with government offices and local administration bodies on behalf of the client. We can supply and fully manage manpower across Office and Site Administration, Camp and Transport, Support Departments (Accounts, Procurement, Security), Repair and Maintenance, and Janitorial and Allied Services — relieving clients of the entire HR overhead for their local workforce.
HR operations at Apex Core Engineering's KSA entity are led by Dr. Saqlain Sher, Chief People Officer, based in Al Jubail.

His career spans banking, telecom, oil and gas, and engineering sectors across the GCC, Pakistan and Scotland, with experience at organisations including Saudi Bin Ladin Group, Descon Engineering, Doosan, PTCL and the National Bank of Pakistan.

Yes. Apex Core Engineering's KSA entity is fully compliant with Saudi regulatory requirements and holds verified certificates for GOSI Occupational Health & Safety, the Wage Protection System (WPS) with zero active violations, and the QIWA platform. Our current Debt Certificate shows zero active violations and zero penalty amounts. With Dr. Saqlain Sher's deep regional experience — including prior roles with Saudi Bin Ladin Group — our KSA HR advisory team navigates GOSI, WPS, Nitaqat and Saudi Labour Law with direct first-hand knowledge.
We provide both. The MANSOFT databank covers the full spectrum from tradespeople through to senior management — Project Directors, Senior Engineers, QA/QC Managers, HSE Managers, Planning Engineers, Cost Control Engineers, HR Managers, Business Development Managers and Finance professionals. For senior appointments, our head-hunting approach is targeted and confidential: we leverage our 15+ years of industry relationships across GCC and Pakistan to identify candidates who are not actively on the market, not just those responding to advertisements.
Yes. HRIS implementation is a defined area of expertise for Dr. Saqlain Sher and the Apex Core Engineering HR consultancy team. We can advise on HRIS selection, manage implementation projects and align the system configuration with your specific HR processes and reporting requirements. Our own internal infrastructure includes MANSOFT (our proprietary manpower data management system), MTSOFT (training management) and ACCEDER and PEACH TREE (accounts management) — giving us direct working knowledge of what effective HR technology infrastructure looks like in practice.
Our industrial relations management service operates on a prevention-first principle. By maintaining clear documentation of employment terms, providing prompt payroll disbursement, and ensuring statutory compliance from day one, the conditions for disputes are minimised before they arise. Where grievances do occur, our team follows a structured process: early intervention, documented investigation, impartial resolution and — where necessary — direct engagement with labour authorities or community representatives on the client's behalf. Our 15+ year track record across challenging project environments demonstrates that this approach works.
