Twenty workers at a tourist establishment at kilometre 30 south of El Quseir have been paid wage differences they were owed, after the Red Sea labour directorate took up a failure to apply the minimum wage. The outcome appears in an account of the labour directorates' work published on 9 November.

The report credits the El Quseir labour office, headed by Zeinab Abdel Sabour, and one of its inspectors with ending the violation and settling the workers' pay. The establishment is not named and no figure is given for the amounts paid.

The same office also briefed 37 workers at the Akassia Swiss hotel, at kilometre 26 south of El Quseir, on Egypt's new labour law, Law 14 of 2025. The session covered individual contracts, how employment ends, annual and public-holiday leave, working hours and rest periods, and the minimum wage.

In Marsa Alam, the directorate and the local labour office held a similar session at the Alexander the Great hotel, which the report says is meant to reduce disputes inside tourist establishments.

Based on the daily account of the labour directorates' work in the governorates, published on 9 November by Mobtada; only its Red Sea section was read, and no separate ministry or company statement was obtained. The establishment where the wages were owed is not identified; the Akassia Swiss and Alexander the Great hotels appear only as venues for the labour-law briefings.
