The website is designated for state employees covered by Civil Service Law 81/2016, the CAOA said in a statement on Wednesday.

The platform serves as a guide for the regulations of employment, promotion, and incentives as per the same law, the statement added.

Saleh Al-Sheikh, head of the CAOA, issued on Wednesday a decree promoting employees in the state’s administrative apparatus who are addressed by Law 81/2016.

The promotions apply to employees in the public service, ministries, government agencies, and local administrative units.

The cabinet-affiliated CAOA is meant to achieve the objectives of the administrative reform programme and develop civil services.

In April, Egypt raised the minimum wage of government employees to EGP 3,500 and pensions by 15 percent as part of a wide-ranging social package to alleviate the repercussions of global economic difficulties.

The government also raised the minimum wage of government employees holding a Master's degree to EGP 6,000 and of PhD holders to EGP 7,000.
