Employment termination in Mauritius
Termination process
Employee contracts can be terminated if a just cause is established, such as dishonesty, negligence, fraud, or any other work-related offenses. Otherwise, employees must be informed in advance if the decision is business inclined.
Notice period
Mauritian employees are entitled to a minimum 30 day notice period. Longer notice periods may be stipulated in employment agreements, but this figure can not be less than 30 days. Employees who’ve been employed for three years or more are entitled to three months of advance notice.
Severance pay
Severance payments are only required for unjustified (or purely economic) terminations. The severance pay is equal to three months’ wages paid for each year the employee has served with the employer.
Probation periods
There is no minimum probation period. Probation periods can last for a maximum of 12 months.
