Sick leave in Egypt
Under Article 131 of Egypt Labour Law No. 14 of 2025 and the Social Insurance Law, sick leave in a year, continuous or not, is paid in this order:
| Days | Pay |
|---|---|
| 90 days | 75% pay |
| 90 days | 85% pay |
Social insurance pays sick pay for insured workers. Workers in industrial establishments get a better scheme: 3 months on full pay, then 6 months at 85%, then 3 months at 75%, every three years.
Estimate only; your contract may give you more. Sick leave needs an approved medical certificate.
