Employing in Cameroon
The Cameroonian Labour Code of 1992 defines provisions for employee protections and workers’ rights which apply to Cameroon’s workforce of 11.4 million.
Employees in Cameroon enjoy protections against discrimination based on age, religion, gender expression, and race.
Common questions that could come up during the hiring process include the minimum wage, overtime rates, and guaranteed paid time off. Remote can help you offer a complete, competitive, and compliant benefits package to your employees in Cameroon.

Grow your team in Cameroon with Remote
You can pay contractors now in Cameroon with Remote in some currencies (talk to a Remote expert now for more details).
Note that we are busy developing our EOR product to legally operate in Cameroon and provide you with the best possible experience for your team, but we are not yet ready to employ in Cameroon.
Companies hiring in Cameroon are typically required to either own a legal entity in the country or work with a global employment solutions provider to employ on the company's behalf. Developing the processes required to manage payroll, benefits, taxes, and onboarding in countries like Cameroon can get complicated fast, especially without localised expertise. If you’re looking to start hiring in a country like this, using a global HR platform like Remote makes it easy to hire workers in full compliance with all local legislation. In the countries where we do offer our Employer of Record product, Remote takes on responsibility for compliance so you can focus on hiring great talent and growing your business.

Cameroon, like many other countries, treats self-employed individuals or contractors and full-time employees differently. Misclassification of contractors in Cameroon may lead to fines and penalties for the offending company.
