⚖️ Legal Regulations

The Tunisian Labor Code governs working conditions. The standard legal workweek is 40 hours, typically spread over 5 days. Employees are entitled to paid annual leave and official public holidays as non-working days. Specific regulations may exist for overtime, night work, and rest periods.

💡 Insights

A common practice in Tunisia is the use of 'replacement holidays' when a public holiday falls on a weekend, which can affect the total number of working days in a year. The typical work schedule is Monday to Friday. Cultural work habits often include a long midday break, especially in the summer, and a more relaxed pace in the afternoon.
