How the Rules and Regulations on Overtime in Malta Work

Rules on overtime vary by sector and are governed by the Wage Regulation Order (WRO) that applies to the particular activities you are carrying out. If your job or sector is not covered by a WRO, then the default overtime rate is 1.5 times your ordinary pay and will apply to any hours worked over 40 per week. However, this is averaged over a four-week period or shift cycle, so if you worked less than 40 hours in one week, it may affect your entitlement to overtime the next week.

Work In Malta - Essential Expat Information

It is not always easy to find work in Malta because of the limited range of job sectors on the island. Work permits can be issued by the Maltese government.

Malta gives preference to their own citizens over EU citizens. This came about after a seven-year transition from national sovereignty to EU status beginning in 2004. Malta gave priority to their own citizens during this time. This practice lasted longer than expected and still makes it difficult for non-citizens to find work. However, with some dedication and persistence, it is possible to find a job and experience life on the island.
