A recent report has disclosed the leading African countries which pay their workers well enough.

Salary is one of the major factors considered by workers before they accept to work with a specific company.

Over the years, the high demand for specialist talents across a range of industries has improved greatly due to positive economic growth. This has led to more competitiveness in salary demand across regions over the years.

Here is the list of the top 10 African nations where workers receive the highest incomes.

Morocco

Morocco has an average pay of $2,031, which puts country at the top of the list. This is explained by the nation's diverse economy, which includes thriving industries like mining, tourism, and textiles.

South Africa

South Africa, with an average wage of $2,026 per year, comes in second. The nation's robust mining and manufacturing sectors, as well as its well-established banking sector, are the main drivers of its higher wage rates.

One of the most industrialized countries on the continent since gaining independence in 1910 is South Africa, which helps explain why incomes there are comparatively high in a variety of industries.

Tunisia

Tunisia comes in third with an average salary of $1,348. In addition to its advantageous location close to Europe, the nation has strong manufacturing, healthcare, and educational sectors.

Kenya

Kenya has an average salary of $1,291, which is driven by the country's rapidly growing economy, important industries like fintech, telecommunications, and agriculture, as well as Nairobi's increasing status as a tech hub.
