⚖️ Legal Regulations

Morocco's Labor Code (Dahir n° 1-03-194) governs working conditions. The standard workweek is 44 hours, with a maximum of 10 hours per day. Employees are entitled to paid annual leave and public holidays as stipulated by law. Religious holidays (Eid al-Fitr, Eid al-Adha, Islamic New Year, Prophet's Birthday) are observed based on lunar sightings and dates are often announced shortly before.

💡 Insights

The workweek typically runs from Monday to Friday, with Saturday and Sunday as the weekend. In practice, many businesses operate a half-day on Saturday. 'Bridge days' are not officially recognized, but employees may use annual leave to create long weekends. The workday often includes a long midday break, especially in the summer, with businesses reopening in the late afternoon.
