Workers recognize between 8 and 15 paid public holidays in Lebanon. Work performed on a public holiday is generally payable at 150% or a paid day off in lieu.
After one year of service, Workers are entitled to 15 days of paid vacation. That number increases based on length of service: 1 - 5 years of service - 15 days of vacation; 5 - 10 years of service - 17 days of vacation; 10 - 15 years of service - 19 days of vacation; 15+ years of service - 21 days of vacation.
Upon presentation of a medical certificate, Workers are entitled to paid sick leave depending upon their length of service: 3 months - 2 years of service - one-half of a month with full pay and half of a month with half pay; 2 - 4 years of service - 1 month of full pay and 1 month with half pay; 4 - 6 years of service - 1.5 months with full pay and 1.5 months with half pay; 6 - 10 years of service - 2 months with full pay and 2 months with half pay; and 10+ years of service - 2.5 months with full pay and 2.5 months with half pay.
A standard workday is Monday through Friday, from approximately 8:30 a.m. through 4:30 p.m. Working hours must not exceed 48 hours per week. Workers are entitled to a one-hour break after five hours of work and a weekly rest day, which generally falls on Sundays.
Overtime is usually reserved for non-managerial positions and payable at 150%. Some organizations choose to offer overtime pay to all Workers.
There are no mandatory bonuses in Lebanon.
Except in limited cases such as misconduct, termination requires a cause, an end-of-service indemnity, and notice based on the Worker's length of service: 0-3 years of service - one month's notice; 3-6 years of service - 2 months' notice; 6-12 years of service - 3 months' notice; and 12+ years of service - 4 months of service. The notice period may be paid in lieu. Workers with at least one year of service are entitled to an end-of-service indemnity which is generally equal to one month's salary for each year of service. An employment agreement may also be terminated by mutual agreement.
Except in cases of misconduct or breach of contract on the part of the employer, Workers are required to provide one month's notice of resignation or pay in lieu.
