Employers in Algeria usually need to pay employees who are absent from work starting from their first day of leave. Up to 15 days are paid at 50% of normal salary, then at 100% for longer sicknesses or those requiring hospitalization.
Employees in Algeria are generally entitled to five days of notice per year with an employer upon termination, with an upper limit of 30 days.
Workers in their probation period are not entitled to this notice period, which can be six to 12 months long depending on the role.
Employees are also usually entitled to severance pay equivalent to 15 days of pay for every year with an employer above two years, with an upper limit of three months.
Navigating employee terminations and handling severance packages can be complicated for companies expanding overseas for the first time. Horizons’ Algeria EOR can mitigate risk for foreign companies and provide guidance through this process.
Employees in Algeria are taxed progressively on their incomes, with rates ranging from 0% to 35% depending on income level.
The corporate tax rate in Algeria is different for different types of companies, but for those engaged in mixed activities, the maximum rate is 26% of taxable profits.
Public healthcare in Algeria is funded via tax, but many employers do choose to offer private medical insurance to employees as part of their benefits packages.

Employees in Algeria often expect benefits packages as part of their employment agreements, so you may need to set up a benefits management system when hiring in the country. But setting up and managing a benefits system in Algeria can be complicated, particularly if you are unfamiliar with the country’s unique regulations and procedures.
Horizons can help to significantly simplify this step of your Algeria expansion by providing benefit management outsourcing. Our team can advise you and handle the setup of your benefit scheme, enabling you to focus on expanding your organization with our Algeria EOR.
