Lundi supports compliant employment in Lebanon on a case-by-case basis given ongoing economic and political instability. Significant senior Lebanese talent has relocated regionally (UAE, Cyprus, Saudi Arabia) and to Europe. Lundi typically recommends sourcing the relocated talent in its current geography.
Lebanon historically had one of the Middle East's most educated, multilingual (Arabic, French, English) professional talent pools concentrated in Beirut. Since 2019–2022, ongoing economic crisis, currency collapse (Lebanese pound has lost over 95% of its value), and political instability have driven significant talent emigration — substantial portion of senior banking, finance, and tech professionals have relocated to UAE, Cyprus, Saudi Arabia, France, or further afield. Lundi supports compliant employment in Lebanon on a case-by-case basis but typically recommends sourcing the relocated Lebanese talent in its new geography. For Arabic-language and MENA-region operations UAE is often the right answer.
What it costs to employ someone through Lundi.
Lundi's cost is the all-in cost of the employee — gross salary plus statutory employer contributions plus customary benefits — and a Lundi management fee on top. The management fee depends on team size and scope: smaller teams pay a higher per-head rate, teams of 20+ get materially better unit economics, and Build–Operate–Transfer engagements are structured separately.
The alternative paths look like: setting up your own local entity (meaningful months of legal and accounting work, plus ongoing in-country HR, payroll, and compliance infrastructure), engaging a local recruitment agency on contingency (typically a percentage of first-year compensation, paid once, with no ongoing employment relationship), or hiring as a contractor (lower upfront cost, real misclassification risk in most jurisdictions). Lundi is faster than entity setup, structurally different from contingency recruitment, and lower-risk than contractor arrangements.

In Lebanon, written notice must be provided for terminations, except in cases of contract violation. The notice period for dismissals and resignation depends on the employee's length of service with the employer. The breakdown is as follows:
In lieu of letting employees serve out their notice period, employers can also choose to pay them compensation equal to the wages that would have been earned during the notice period.
The employer and employee can terminate the employment contract at any time by mutual consent, as long as the employee's consent is expressed in writing.
Lundi works with companies building teams of 10 or more across business, technical, and operational functions . Not for one-off hires or individual placements.
EOR platforms employ individuals for you. Lundi recruits, employs, and operates concentrated teams — including day-to-day management, HR, and an optional path to your own entity. It's the operating model for companies that have outgrown the EOR ceiling.
