About the Training
Since it came into force, the Workers' Rights Act 2019 has reshaped employment in Mauritius — from the 45-hour working week and overtime rules to work-from-home arrangements under Section 17A, the end-of-year bonus, severance allowance and the Portable Retirement Gratuity Fund. Amendments keep coming, and "we didn't know" is never a defence before the Industrial Court.
This focused workshop takes you through the Act itself, section by section, so you can find, read and apply the right provision when a real situation lands on your desk. If you want the full legislative landscape — including the Employment Relations Act, discrimination law and occupational safety — our broader Employment Law Course is the right choice; this WRA training is the deep dive on the one Act you use every day. It also strengthens our HR Administration Course, forms part of the pathway to the Diploma in HR Management, and can be delivered in-house through our corporate training solutions.
What You Will Learn
- Scope of the WRA 2019: Who Is Covered & Key Definitions
- Employment Agreements: Written Particulars & Types of Contracts
- The 45-Hour Week: Working Hours, Shift Work & Rest Days
- Overtime Calculation, Meal Allowance & Public Holidays
- Section 17A: Work-From-Home Rights & Employer Obligations
- Leave Entitlements: Annual, Sick, Vacation, Maternity & Paternity Leave
- Remuneration, Equal Pay & the End-of-Year Bonus (13th Month)
- Termination of Agreement: Notice, Procedures & Protected Situations
- Severance Allowance: When It Applies & How It Is Calculated
- Portable Retirement Gratuity Fund (PRGF): Contributions & Obligations
- Disciplinary Action Under the Act: Fair Hearing & Documentation
- Recent Amendments & Your WRA Compliance Checklist
Who Should Enrol?
- HR professionals who apply the Workers' Rights Act daily and want to know it inside out
- Business owners and directors in Mauritius who are personally accountable for WRA compliance
- Line managers and supervisors who decide on hours, overtime, leave and discipline
- Payroll officers who calculate overtime, leave pay, end-of-year bonus and severance
- Anyone whose organisation has faced — or wants to avoid — a labour dispute or Industrial Court claim
What Our Participants Say
HR teams, payroll officers and business owners across Mauritius rely on DNB Business Institute to make the Workers' Rights Act clear and usable.
"I thought I knew the WRA until this workshop. Going through it section by section with real scenarios showed me at least five things we were doing wrong — including how we calculated overtime on public holidays. Fixed within a week."
"When an employee requested work-from-home under Section 17A, nobody in our company knew what our obligations were. This training gave us the answer and a policy template. Worth it for that module alone."
"We sent our whole management team for in-house WRA training after a near miss with a termination case. The compliance checklist we left with is now part of our standard procedures — and the HRDC refund made the decision easy."
