New labor law details including bonuses and penalties
The Ministry of Labor in Egypt has issued a guidance manual outlining the rights and obligations of workers and employers under the new Labor Law No. 14 of 2025, which defines the organization of labor relations and protects workers' rights. The law includes exemptions for certain categories such as government employees and domestic workers, and emphasizes the protection of previously acquired benefits and rights. It provides a comprehensive definition of wages, including both fixed and variable components. Additionally, the law criminalizes forced labor, harassment, bullying, and discrimination, with fines of up to 50,000 Egyptian pounds for violations. Workers are entitled to an annual periodic raise of no less than 3%. The law also permits licensing procedures for practicing professions and certifications for skill levels. It highlights the joint responsibility of multiple employers to ensure workers' rights, and protects workers' rights in case of business closure or liquidation. Furthermore, it offers free legal assistance through specialized court offices.
