The Egyptian government has approved financial incentives for education and healthcare workers. These include a competency allowance for teachers of up to 4,000 Egyptian pounds, new benefits worth 750 pounds for doctors, and an increase in the quality allowance for faculty members. Performance-related incentives will be paid over nine school months. Teachers welcomed the measures, but doctors and academics said they fell short of their expectations, citing low wages and the rising cost of living. Annual inflation stood at 13.9 percent in September. The move comes amid debate over raising the minimum wage—from 8,000 pounds in the public sector and 7,000 in the private sector to 15,000 by 2030—with warnings that pay increases could fuel inflation unless accompanied by higher productivity.
