What it does
Article 53 of Morocco's Labour Code gives an employee dismissed after at least six months, except for serious misconduct, an indemnité de licenciement counted in hours of salary: 96 hours for each of the first five years, 144 hours from the 6th to the 10th, 192 hours from the 11th to the 15th and 240 hours after that, with part years in proportion. The hourly salary is the monthly salary divided by 191. If the dismissal is abusive, article 41 adds damages of one and a half months per year, up to 36 months.
How to use it
