What to Consider When Hiring Employees in Nigeria?
Employment
In Nigeria, employees are engaged under the Nigerian Labour Act and are entitled to various benefits, including paid annual leave, sick leave, and parental leave. Notice periods vary depending on the length of service, and there are strict rules regarding termination.
Benefits
Nigeria has a public healthcare system, and employers can offer supplementary private medical coverage. By using Workwell Global's Employer of Record Nigeria solution, you can attract candidates by offering supplementary benefits plans.
Law
Employment laws vary between regions, with minimum employment standards set by federal law. Employers must comply with these regulations, including the Nigerian Labour Act and the Nigerian Social Security Laws which include the PENCOM Act which governs the pension system.
