Lebanese Labor Law

My dear friends,

I know how hard it is to find a suitable job nowadays.
Here is a soft copy of the Lebanese Labor Law قوانين العمل (means Labor Law in Arabic).
If you are a Lebanese person working in Lebanon, these are your rights; know them and do not settle for less!

Some companies play around with them and are not aligned. Whenever you have doubts, always ask. No one will care for your rights more than you do. I hope that this will help you.

Best regards!

I heard on TV that there was a new project law under preparation. Should it be adopted,  the Lebanese Labor Law will change drastically.
