Why hire talents from Egypt
Egypt is a country with a rich history and a vibrant culture, and it is also home to a highly educated and skilled workforce. According to the UNESCO Institute for Statistics, the adult literacy rate in Egypt was 75% in 2019. This high literacy rate is a testament to the country’s commitment to education and to the quality of its educational institutions.
For international organizations looking to hire in Egypt, this high literacy rate is a significant advantage. It means that there is a large pool of skilled and educated workers available to fill a variety of roles. Additionally, many of these workers have experience working in multinational organizations and are familiar with international business practices.
Egypt also has a strong tradition of entrepreneurship and innovation. The country’s rapidly growing startup ecosystem has produced a number of successful companies in recent years, particularly in the technology sector. This entrepreneurial spirit is reflected in the work ethic of many Egyptian workers, who are known for their dedication and drive.
Egypt’s strategic location and well-developed infrastructure make it an attractive location for businesses looking to expand into new markets. The country’s proximity to Europe, the Middle East, and Africa makes it an ideal hub for companies operating in these regions.
Egypt’s high literacy rate, skilled workforce, entrepreneurial spirit, strategic location, and well-developed infrastructure make it an ideal location for international organizations looking to hire top local talent. At Breedj, we can help you tap into this talent pool and find the best candidates for your organization’s needs.

Employment laws and regulations in Egypt
When it comes to hiring and managing employees in Egypt, it is important for international organizations to be aware of the country’s labor laws and regulations. Here are some key points to keep in mind:
Employment contracts: In Egypt, employment contracts are typically drafted in Arabic and should include a detailed description of the job duties and responsibilities, as well as the length of the contract. It is also recommended to include provisions for severance pay and notice periods.
Probation period: Employees in Egypt are typically hired with an initial probationary period. The length of the probation period is fixed by contract and, by law, cannot exceed three months.
Working hours: A full work week is generally considered to be five 8-hour work days in Egypt, from Sunday through Thursday (to a maximum of six full days, which would generally add Saturday as the sixth).
Overtime: Working overtime must be with the explicit agreement of the employer, while the total working hours during a day must not exceed 10 hours. This usually means that the employee is only entitled to two hours of overtime pay. The minimum premiums are set at 35% of the normal pay for overtime work during daylight and 70% for work at nighttime; 100% for work performed on days off and holidays.

Employment termination in Egypt
Termination of employment is an important aspect of managing employees in Egypt, and it is important for international organizations to be aware of the policies and regulations that apply. Here are some key points to keep in mind:
General termination policies: In case of termination of a definite period employment contract by the employer at any time within its term, without a justified cause, the employer shall be liable to cover full wage which the employee would have been entitled to throughout the entire period of the contract. Applicable notice period shall be as agreed upon in the definite period employment contract. A two months’ notice period shall be sent to the employee if his/her service with the employer has been less than 10 years; a three months’ notice period shall be sent in case the employee’s service with the employer has been more than 10 years. An employer is not entitled to terminate an employment contract unless the employee breaches the contract by committing a “grave fault” (Article 69, Labor Law).
Definition of “grave fault”: “Grave fault” constitutes the following:
Assumption of false identity or submission of forged documents;
Continuous violation of safety instructions;
Absence from work for more than 20 non-consecutive or 10 consecutive days in a given one year;
Disclosure of the employer’s secrets causing material loss;
Competition with the employer in the same line of work;
Intoxicated state during working hours;
Assault of the employer, general manager, or any of the superiors;
Professional incompetence.
Compensation for unfair dismissal: In case an employee is unfairly dismissed, he/she is eligible for a claim of compensation. Such compensation is decided and identified by the competent court but must not be less than two months’ full wages for each year of service; in case of a definite term agreement, the salary for the remainder of the contract period.
Notice period: A two months’ notice period shall be sent to the employee if his/her service with the employer has been less than 10 years. A three months’ notice period shall be sent in case the employee’s service with the employer has been more than 10 years.
Severance pay: With regards to terminations for economic reasons, the severance allowance must be equal to one month’s wage for each of the first five years of service, and one-and-a-half months for each subsequent year. In case of termination of an indefinite period employment contract by the employer without a justified cause, the employer shall be liable to compensation of the employee: no less than two months’ full salary for each year of service in addition to entitlements such as accrued leaves, bonuses, etc.
