Co-employ workers in Mauritius in as little as 48 hours, because Africa Deployments Ltd (BRN C19167158) has been registered in Mauritius since August 2019 and is already CBRD-recognised, MRA-active, and CSG, PRGF, and HRDC-enrolled. No waiting for CBRD incorporation, MRA employer registration, or social contribution scheme setup on your side.
Accurate MUR payroll with MRA PAYE at the current 2026 rates (0% to MUR 500,000 annually, 10% from MUR 500,001 to MUR 1,000,000, 20% above MUR 1,000,000), CSG employer contributions at 3% or 6%, PRGF at 4.5%, HRDC at 1.5%, NSF employee deductions at 2.5% (capped at MUR 608 per month), and 13th-month bonus accrual, all remitted via MRA e-services monthly.
Administrative employer liability sits with Africa Deployments Ltd under the co-employment arrangement. Your company is protected from Workers' Rights Act 2019 statutory compliance exposure, Industrial Court unjustified dismissal claims, MRA PAYE and CSG penalties, PRGF underpayment risk, and invalid employment contract exposure under Mauritius law.
ProPass Occupation Permit (minimum MUR 30,000 per month, 10-year validity), Expert Pass Occupation Permit (minimum MUR 250,000 per month, 10-year validity), and Young Professional Occupation Permit support for international employees, managed by Africa Deployments Ltd as the registered Mauritius employer sponsor through the Economic Development Board (EDB) e-Immigration portal.
A Mauritius Professional Employer Organisation (PEO) is a licensed service provider that co-employs your workforce under a shared employment arrangement, placing staff on the PEO’s Mauritius payroll while you retain full operational and strategic control. Under a Mauritius PEO, the provider manages payroll processing in MUR, MRA PAYE withholding, CSG contributions, PRGF employer funding, HRDC training levy, NSF employee deductions, Workers’ Rights Act 2019-compliant employment contracts, and 13th-month bonus obligations, while you direct the employee’s day-to-day work. The co-employment structure means both you and the PEO hold defined employer responsibilities, rather than the PEO acting as the sole legal employer.
In a Mauritius PEO arrangement, the employment contract sits between the employee and the PEO’s registered Mauritius entity. Africa Deployments Ltd (BRN C19167158) handles all administrative employer functions: payroll in MUR, MRA PAYE remittance, CSG employer and employee contributions, PRGF monthly funding, HRDC levy, NSF deduction, Workers’ Rights Act 2019-compliant employment documentation, and 13th-month bonus accrual and disbursement. You, as the operational employer, direct the employee’s daily work, set objectives, and make hiring and performance decisions. Your obligations to Africa Deployments Mauritius are defined in a separate client services agreement.
Yes. Africa Deployments Mauritius delivers all PEO and EOR services through Africa Deployments Ltd, a private company incorporated in the Republic of Mauritius on 29 August 2019 under the Companies Act 2001 (Business Registration Number: C19167158, VAT Registration Number: 27738392). It is the parent company of the entire Africa Deployments group, physically present in Mauritius, MRA-active, and directly accountable under Mauritius law, not through agents, brokers, or sub-contracted partners.
A Mauritius PEO operates through co-employment: both you and the PEO share employer status, and you retain a direct legal relationship with the employee. A Mauritius Employer of Record (EOR) operates through sole employment: Africa Deployments Ltd becomes the only legal employer under the Workers’ Rights Act 2019 and assumes full administrative compliance liability, with no direct employment relationship between the client and the worker. For organisations building a long-term Mauritius workforce with eventual plans to incorporate locally via the CBRD, a PEO is typically the preferred transitional structure. For rapid single-hire deployments or short-term project teams, an EOR removes compliance complexity from day one.
Africa Deployments Mauritius assumes full administrative employer responsibility under the co-employment arrangement, including Workers’ Rights Act 2019 and End of Year Gratuity Act 2001 compliance, MRA PAYE and CSG contribution filings, PRGF and HRDC monthly remittance, NSF deduction processing, mandatory 13th-month bonus obligations, statutory leave administration, and Industrial Court-aligned termination procedures. The client company directs operational work and retains defined employer involvement as set out in the co-employment agreement.
Yes. Africa Deployments Mauritius manages full PEO payroll in Mauritian Rupee (MUR), calculating gross-to-net salaries, applying MRA PAYE using the current 2026 tax tables (0% on annual income up to MUR 500,000; 10% on MUR 500,001 to MUR 1,000,000; 20% above MUR 1,000,000, effective from 1 July 2025), deducting and remitting CSG at 3% employer and 1.5% employee (for salaries up to MUR 50,000) or 6% employer and 3% employee (for salaries above MUR 50,000), PRGF employer contributions at 4.5%, HRDC training levy at 1.5%, NSF employee deductions at 2.5% (capped at MUR 608 per month), and 13th-month bonus, all via MRA e-services monthly.
Mauritius PEO providers must comply with the Workers’ Rights Act 2019 (Act No. 20 of 2019), which governs employment contracts, working hours, leave entitlements, notice periods, the PRGF, and the 13th-month bonus; the End of Year Gratuity Act 2001; the Human Resource Development Act (HRDC training levy); the National Savings Fund Act (NSF); the Revenue Act and MRA regulations (PAYE and CSG); the Data Protection Act 2017 (employee personal data); and the Immigration Act and EDB guidelines for foreign national Occupation Permits. All Industrial Court decisions interpreting the Workers’ Rights Act 2019 also bind registered employers. Africa Deployments Mauritius maintains full compliance with all applicable Mauritius employment legislation.
Africa Deployments Mauritius typically onboards co-employed workers within 48 hours of engagement initiation. This includes drafting Workers’ Rights Act 2019-compliant employment contracts in English or bilingual English and French, completing MRA PAYE and CSG employee registration, activating PRGF and HRDC records, configuring payroll in MUR, and setting up NSF deductions. No CBRD entity setup, MRA employer registration, or statutory scheme waiting period is required, because Africa Deployments Ltd (BRN C19167158) has been CBRD-registered and MRA-active in Mauritius since August 2019.
Yes. Fixed-term employment contracts are permitted under the Workers’ Rights Act 2019 in Mauritius where the nature of the work is genuinely temporary or project-based. The contract must specify its duration, the nature of the work, and any renewal or non-renewal terms. A succession of fixed-term contracts used to avoid conferring indefinite employment status may, over time, be treated by the Industrial Court as constituting a contract of indefinite duration. Africa Deployments Mauritius advises on appropriate contract structure and manages all fixed-term co-employment arrangements in full compliance with the Workers’ Rights Act 2019.
Financial services and banking, information and communication technology (ICT), Business Process Outsourcing (BPO), global business services, renewable energy, tourism and hospitality, professional services, healthcare, NGOs and international development organisations, and multinational corporations establishing their African regional headquarters or treasury management functions in Mauritius frequently use PEO services, particularly for scaling operations, market-entry deployments, and multi-year workforce arrangements where the organisation intends to eventually incorporate locally via the CBRD.
Yes. Africa Deployments Ltd (BRN C19167158) can co-employ foreign nationals in Mauritius under the PEO arrangement, provided the appropriate Occupation Permit has been secured through the Economic Development Board (EDB) e-Immigration portal. For most professional roles, a ProPass Occupation Permit (minimum MUR 30,000 per month, 10-year validity) or Expert Pass Occupation Permit (minimum MUR 250,000 per month, 10-year validity) is required. The Young Professional Occupation Permit (minimum MUR 25,000 per month, 3-year validity) applies to graduates of Mauritius institutions. Africa Deployments Mauritius manages the full EDB application and renewal process as the registered Mauritius employer sponsor.
Africa Deployments Mauritius manages all statutory benefits under the Workers’ Rights Act 2019 for co-employed workers, including CSG contributions providing social security coverage; PRGF employer funding at 4.5% providing portable retirement accumulation; NSF employee savings deductions at 2.5%; a minimum of 22 working days of paid annual leave per year; 15 days of paid sick leave per year (accumulating up to 90 days in a sick bank); 16 weeks of fully paid maternity leave with MUR 3,000 maternity allowance (updated June 2024); 4 calendar weeks of fully paid paternity leave (updated June 2024); and mandatory 13th-month bonus under the End of Year Gratuity Act 2001. Supplementary benefits including private health insurance and pension top-ups are scoped separately based on client requirements.
Yes. Co-employing remote employees in Mauritius through Africa Deployments Mauritius as PEO is fully legal and compliant under the Workers’ Rights Act 2019. The PEO provides the formal employment structure, including MRA PAYE and CSG registration, PRGF and HRDC activation, and all statutory obligations, that makes remote employment legally valid under Mauritius law, regardless of where the client company is headquartered or incorporated.
Africa Deployments Mauritius calculates and withholds PAYE income tax from all co-employed worker salaries using the current MRA tax tables. Effective from 1 July 2025, Mauritius simplified its personal income tax: 0% on annual chargeable income up to MUR 500,000; 10% on income between MUR 500,001 and MUR 1,000,000; and 20% on income above MUR 1,000,000. The monthly exempt threshold is MUR 38,462. PAYE is deducted monthly and remitted to the MRA via e-services. Annual income statements are issued to all co-employed employees for MRA filing purposes.
The Contribution Sociale Generalisee (CSG), which replaced the former National Pensions Fund (NPF) in September 2020, applies to all Mauritius co-employed workers. For employees earning a monthly basic salary of MUR 50,000 or below, the employer contributes 3% and the employee contributes 1.5% of basic salary. For employees earning above MUR 50,000, the employer contributes 6% and the employee contributes 3%, applied to the full salary amount. CSG is remitted to the MRA monthly via e-services alongside the PAYE return. Africa Deployments Mauritius calculates, deducts, and remits all CSG contributions for every co-employed worker.
The Portable Retirement Gratuity Fund (PRGF), introduced under the Workers’ Rights Act 2019, requires employers to contribute 4.5% of each co-employed worker’s monthly basic salary to the fund, administered by the MRA. The PRGF balance belongs to the employee, is portable between employers, and is paid out on termination in addition to any severance due in cases of unjustified dismissal. No PRGF contribution applies for employees earning above MUR 200,000 basic salary per month. Africa Deployments Mauritius manages all PRGF obligations as part of the standard monthly PEO payroll arrangement.
The Human Resource Development Council (HRDC) training levy is a mandatory employer contribution of 1.5% of basic monthly wages under the Human Resource Development Act, payable by all registered employers in Mauritius. The levy funds national workforce training programmes and is partially refundable through HRDC-approved training claims. HRDC is remitted to the MRA monthly alongside PAYE and CSG via e-services. As the registered employer, Africa Deployments Ltd (BRN C19167158) pays the HRDC levy for every co-employed worker and advises clients on HRDC training grant recovery.
The National Savings Fund (NSF) is an employee-funded savings scheme providing a lump-sum benefit on retirement or death. The employee contributes 2.5% of monthly basic salary, capped at MUR 608 per month. NSF is an employee-side deduction only, with no corresponding employer contribution. It is withheld from co-employed worker net pay and remitted to the MRA monthly. Africa Deployments Mauritius calculates, withholds, and remits NSF contributions for every co-employed worker as part of the standard monthly payroll service.
Under the Workers’ Rights Act 2019, the standard working week in Mauritius is 45 hours with a daily maximum of 10 hours. Every employee is entitled to a minimum continuous weekly rest period of 24 hours. Managers earning above MUR 600,000 per year are excluded from daily and weekly hour limits. Overtime must be compensated at 1.5 times the ordinary hourly rate for weekday and rest-day hours, and at 2 times (with a substitute rest day) for public holiday work, or at 3 times for overtime beyond normal hours on a public holiday. Africa Deployments Mauritius manages working time and overtime compliance for all co-employed workers.
Under the Workers’ Rights Act 2019, employees in Mauritius with at least 12 consecutive months of continuous service are entitled to 22 working days of paid annual leave per year (comprising 20 days of ordinary leave and 2 additional days). Leave accrues from the first day of service and is pro-rated for partial years. Unused annual leave at termination must be settled in the final payroll. Africa Deployments Mauritius manages annual leave accrual, tracking, and terminal pay for every co-employed worker as standard under the PEO arrangement.
Following amendments to the Workers’ Rights Act 2019 effective from 7 June 2024, maternity leave in Mauritius is 16 consecutive weeks of fully paid leave (18 weeks for multiple or premature births), funded by the employer, plus a MUR 3,000 maternity allowance on production of the birth certificate. Paternity leave is 4 consecutive calendar weeks of fully paid leave, extended from 5 working days by the June 2024 amendments. Both entitlements require 12 months of continuous service with the same employer and are fully managed and funded by Africa Deployments Ltd as the registered employer under the PEO arrangement.
Yes. The end-of-year bonus is mandatory in Mauritius under the Workers’ Rights Act 2019 and the End of Year Gratuity Act 2001. Co-employed workers with at least one full calendar year of continuous service are entitled to a bonus equivalent to one-twelfth of their annual earnings, pro-rated for shorter periods. At least 75% must be paid no later than five clear working days before 25 December, with the balance due by the last working day of the year. The bonus is subject to MRA PAYE and CSG. Africa Deployments Mauritius accrues the 13th-month obligation monthly and manages disbursement and MRA reporting within the statutory deadlines.
The Workers’ Rights Act 2019 sets a statutory minimum notice period of 30 calendar days for all employees in Mauritius, payable in lieu if either party prefers immediate separation. Longer notice periods may be agreed for senior or professional roles but cannot be reduced below 30 calendar days except under a validly framed probationary arrangement. Notice runs on calendar days, including weekends and the 15 gazetted public holidays. Africa Deployments Mauritius manages all notice period obligations and coordinates the full offboarding process for co-employed workers under the PEO arrangement.
Statutory severance in Mauritius applies in cases of unjustified dismissal or collective redundancy (Reduction of Workforce) under the Workers’ Rights Act 2019. In cases of unjustified dismissal found by the Industrial Court, compensation of up to three months’ remuneration per year of continuous service applies. In collective redundancy, affected employees receive three months’ remuneration per year of service plus the full accumulated PRGF balance, with mandatory Redundancy Board notification 30 days before terminations are issued. Africa Deployments Mauritius manages severance calculations, PRGF final settlement, and Redundancy Board notification for all co-employed workers.
The national minimum wage in Mauritius is MUR 17,110 per month effective from 1 January 2025, applicable to all sectors. A statutory salary compensation of MUR 635 per month is additionally payable in 2026 to all employees earning up to MUR 50,000 per month, bringing the effective monthly floor to MUR 17,745. Both are subject to MRA PAYE and CSG. Africa Deployments Mauritius ensures all co-employment contracts and payroll runs comply with the current minimum wage and the gazetted annual salary compensation applicable to each calendar year.
The Industrial Court is Mauritius’s specialist tribunal for all employment and labour disputes, established under the Industrial Relations Act 1973. It has exclusive jurisdiction over unjustified dismissal claims, wrongful termination claims, breach of employment contract, and enforcement of statutory rights under the Workers’ Rights Act 2019. Unjustified dismissal findings can result in compensation orders of up to three months’ remuneration per year of service against the employer. Africa Deployments Mauritius, as the registered legal employer, aligns all PEO employment contracts, disciplinary procedures, and termination and offboarding processes with Industrial Court requirements to protect clients from employment litigation in Mauritius.
