What compensation is a worker owed when the employer ends the contract without a lawful reason under Labour Law 14 of 2025?
Reviewed and approved by a lawyer on 5 October 2026; its citations were checked against the library on 5 October 2026.
For an indefinite-term contract, if the employer terminates it without a lawful reason, the worker is entitled to compensation for the resulting harm of no less than two months’ wages for each year of service. This does not affect the worker’s right to claim other entitlements provided by law. 3
The statutory minimum is therefore two months’ wages per service year; the article does not specify a maximum. 3
