Egypt's Minister of Labor, Hassan Raddad, announced on Tuesday, October 6, 2026, that 100 new seasonal agricultural job opportunities are available in Spain. These opportunities are a result of coordination between Egypt's Central Administration for Employment and Central Administration for International Relations, in response to requests from Spanish organizations in the agricultural sector. The goal is to provide qualified Egyptian workers for these jobs, as part of ongoing efforts to open up foreign markets to Egyptian workers and ensure their rights.
The available job opportunities target 100 agricultural workers aged 18 and above. Notably, proficiency in a foreign language is not a prerequisite for application, making this opportunity accessible to a larger number of workers interested in working abroad. The Ministry of Labor stated that this is a unique chance for Egyptian workers to benefit from.
The Ministry of Labor announced a package of financial and in-kind benefits for the selected workers. The minimum wage for these jobs is set at 1200 Euros per month. Employers are also required to provide suitable accommodation for workers and cover the costs of round-trip air tickets. This move aims to ensure that Egyptian workers have a decent standard of living while working abroad.
Interested applicants can submit their applications electronically within three days, starting from Tuesday, October 6, 2026, until Thursday, October 8, 2026. The application process involves registering personal data and uploading a CV on the Ministry's official website. This allows the Ministry to efficiently process applications and match candidates with the available job opportunities.
The Egyptian Ministry of Labor emphasized its commitment to protecting the rights of Egyptian workers abroad and ensuring they have access to decent job opportunities. By providing a platform for workers to apply for these seasonal jobs in Spain, the Ministry is facilitating the process of working abroad while safeguarding workers' interests.
These job opportunities in Spain's agricultural sector reflect the ongoing efforts of the Egyptian government to strengthen international cooperation and create new avenues for Egyptian workers to access foreign labor markets. The Ministry of Labor continues to play a crucial role in promoting Egyptian workers' participation in the global workforce.
