This literacy rate in Tanzania implies that organizations can easily find highly qualified and competent professionals to meet their business needs.

Employment laws and regulations in Tanzania

Employment laws and regulations in Tanzania are designed to protect the rights of both employers and employees. Understanding these laws and regulations is essential for global organizations looking to establish or expand their operations in the country.

Employment contracts are an important aspect of Tanzania labor laws. It is recommended that employment contracts be drafted in English and Swahili to ensure clarity and avoid misunderstandings. The contract should include details such as the job description, salary, benefits, and working hours.

There is no explicit provision in the Employment and Labor Relations Act 2004 about probation periods. However, this act implicitly requires a probationary period of 6 months by saying that a worker with less than 6 months of employment may not bring an unfair termination claim against the employer.

According to Tanzanian labor laws, normal working hours per day are 8 hours, and these should not be more than 45 hours per week. By including the lunch and prayer time in hours of work, working hours should not be greater than 9 hours a day.

Overtime is compensated at 150% of the salary for anything over 48 hours or 200% for working on a designated holiday or rest day.

Termination of employment can be initiated by any of the parties to a contract of employment. Lawful termination of employment under common law includes termination by agreement, automatic termination, termination by the employee, and termination by the employer. Notice period lasts one week if it is served in one month of employment. After the first month, an employee working on a daily basis should be served notice four days before termination, and if an employee works on a monthly basis, the notice period should be 28 days.

Workers are entitled to severance pay if they have completed at least a year of service with the employer. Severance pay in Tanzania is equal to at least 7 days’ basic wage for each completed year of employment up to a maximum of ten years.

Compliance with Tanzanian labor laws is essential for global organizations looking to hire local talents. Breedj’s RPO services in Tanzania ensure compliance with local labor laws, ensuring that global organizations have a seamless hiring process while adhering to local laws and regulations.

Employment termination in Tanzania

Termination of employment is a common practice in the Tanzanian job market, and it can be initiated by any of the parties to a contract of employment. However, lawful termination of employment under common law includes termination by agreement, automatic termination, termination by the employee, and termination by the employer.

Termination of employment by agreement occurs when the employer and employee agree to bring a contract of employment to an end in accordance with an agreement. For example, if there is a contract for a period of one year and the agreed period expires, then the contract will obviously come to an end.

Automatic termination occurs when a contract of employment is terminated automatically in circumstances such as death or loss of business of the employer.

Termination of employment by the employee happens when an employee, due to material breach of the contract by the employer, decides to resign from their employment.

Termination of employment by the employer may happen for various reasons, including redundancy, misconduct, or poor performance. However, there is a need to comply with the provisions of the law and contract relating to termination.

Notice period is an essential aspect of Tanzania labor laws, and it varies depending on the length of service and the type of employment. The notice period lasts one week if it is served in one month of employment. After the first month, an employee working on a daily basis should be served notice four days before termination, and if an employee works on a monthly basis, the notice period should be 28 days.

Workers are entitled to severance pay if they have completed at least a year of service with the employer. Severance pay in Tanzania is equal to at least 7 days’ basic wage for each completed year of employment up to a maximum of ten years.
