The types of work approved in the federal entities are according to the following: work from the entity’s headquarters, remote work from within the country, and remote work from outside the country.
As for the scales of grades and salaries of federal entities, they are determined by the Council of Ministers, and the scales of grades, salaries, and allowances approved for federal entities shall continue to work, prior to the entry into force of the provisions of Federal Decree-Law No. 49 of 2022 regarding human resources in the federal government and this decision, and no amendment may be made to them except by a decision from Council of Ministers.

By a decision of the authority concerned with appointment, the service of a non-national employee may be terminated due to the localization of the position he occupies, provided that he is given notice of that, and the total salary is paid for the notice period stipulated in his employment contract.
The federal entity shall consider notifying the employee when it does not wish to extend his service if he reaches the age of retirement, prior to a period of no less than 6 months from his reaching, that he will not be extended.
