September 2024 Salaries to be Disbursed Early

The Reality of Pay Rise
Prime Minister Dr. Mostafa Madbouli explained the reality of future wage increases at a press conference, noting that the incentives will be different, as they may be in the form of price reductions. The government is studying the salary file within the framework of the budget makers, adding that “it was… a 4-month move to raise wages, and we have a few months to revise this file.”
