Why hire talents from Uganda
Uganda is home to a talented and skilled workforce with a high literacy rate of 73% according to the UNESCO Institute for Statistics. This means that international organizations looking to expand their operations in the country can easily tap into a large pool of educated and experienced professionals.
In recent years, Uganda has made significant progress in developing its education system, with a focus on improving the quality of primary, secondary, and tertiary education. As a result, the country now has a growing number of graduates and skilled professionals in various fields, including engineering, information technology, finance, and healthcare.
Uganda’s strategic location at the heart of East Africa makes it an attractive destination for companies looking to establish a presence in the region. The country’s proximity to major markets such as Kenya, Tanzania, and Rwanda, as well as its access to key transport networks, makes it an ideal hub for businesses looking to expand their operations in East Africa.
By leveraging Breedj’s Uganda RPO services, organizations can tap into this rich pool of local talent and gain a competitive edge in the market. Our RPO solutions are designed to help you find and hire the best candidates quickly and efficiently, while ensuring compliance with local labor laws and regulations.

Employment laws and regulations in Uganda
Employment laws and regulations in Uganda are governed by the Employment Act, which outlines the legal framework for employment in the country. As an employer, it is important to be aware of the key regulations and requirements to ensure compliance with local labor laws.
Employment contracts are a fundamental aspect of the employment relationship in Uganda. The recommended language for drafting employment contracts in Uganda includes information such as job description, duration of employment, compensation, working hours, and benefits. It is recommended to have a written contract signed by both parties, as verbal agreements are not legally binding.
Probation periods are also common in Uganda, with the maximum length being six months. However, this period may be extended to one year with the consent of the worker. During the probation period, either party may terminate the employment relationship with immediate effect and without notice.
In terms of working hours, the law stipulates that the normal working hours per day are eight hours, and these should not exceed 48 hours per week. Working hours should not be greater than nine hours a day, including lunch and prayer time. Overtime is also regulated, with extra hours remunerated at a minimum rate of 1.5 times the normal hourly rate if the overtime is on normal working days, and at two times the hourly rate if worked on public holidays.
At Breedj, we understand the complexities of local labor laws in Uganda and can help you navigate these regulations with ease. Our RPO services ensure compliance with local laws and regulations when sourcing and hiring local talent, giving you peace of mind and a hassle-free recruitment experience.

Employment termination in Uganda
Termination of employment in Uganda is governed by the Employment Act and requires employers to follow specific procedures to ensure compliance with local labor laws. As an employer, it is important to be aware of the requirements for terminating employment to avoid legal issues and disputes.
Termination of employment in Uganda can occur in several ways, including by mutual agreement, expiry of the employment contract, or dismissal for justifiable reasons. Dismissal for justifiable reasons other than misconduct is considered a general termination of employment and requires the employer to follow specific procedures.
Under the law, termination of employment is the discharge of a worker from employment at the initiative of the employer for justifiable reasons other than misconduct. The required notice period depends on the worker’s length of service, ranging from two weeks for service of more than six months but less than one year to three months for service of ten years or more.
Severance pay is also an important aspect of employment termination in Uganda. It is entitled to the worker after continuous service of at least six months and is due in certain circumstances such as unfair dismissal, death of the worker at work, or termination by reason of the death or insolvency of the employer. The amount of severance pay is negotiable between the employer and the worker or the labor union that represents them.
At Breedj, we understand the complexities of employment termination in Uganda and can help you navigate the process with ease. Our RPO services ensure compliance with local labor laws when terminating employment, giving you peace of mind and a hassle-free experience. We offer a range of value-added services, such as legal advice and support, to help you manage the termination process effectively and efficiently.
