Understand remote work regulations and policies in Gambia

Updated on April 24, 2025

Remote work is steadily gaining traction in Gambia, mirroring global trends toward more flexible work arrangements. As businesses increasingly recognize the benefits of remote work, such as access to a wider talent pool and reduced overhead costs, both employers and employees are exploring opportunities for remote and flexible work. For companies looking to expand their operations or hire talent in Gambia, understanding the legal and practical aspects of remote work is essential for ensuring compliance and fostering a productive remote work environment.

In 2025, remote work in Gambia continues to evolve, with companies adapting their policies and practices to accommodate the changing needs of the workforce. This includes navigating the legal framework, implementing effective data protection measures, and providing the necessary technology and support for remote employees.

Currently, Gambia's labor laws do not explicitly address remote work. However, general labor laws apply to remote workers in the same way they apply to on-site employees. This means that employers must adhere to regulations regarding:

  • Employment contracts: Clear terms and conditions of employment, including job responsibilities, working hours, and compensation, must be outlined in a written contract.
  • Working hours and overtime: Standard working hours and overtime pay regulations apply to remote workers. Employers must ensure that remote workers are not subjected to excessive working hours and are compensated fairly for any overtime work.
  • Health and safety: Employers have a duty to ensure the health and safety of their employees, including those working remotely. This may involve providing guidance on ergonomic setups and conducting risk assessments of remote work environments.
  • Social security contributions: Employers are required to make social security contributions for remote workers, as per Gambian law.
  • Termination: Termination of employment must comply with the provisions of the labor laws, including notice periods and severance pay, where applicable.
