Morocco's Median Salary Revealed
As of September 6, 2026, the international salary comparison platform has identified the median monthly salary in Morocco to be approximately 6,000 dirhams. This figure, however, conceals significant disparities within the Moroccan labor market and is based on a relatively limited sample size. According to the data released by Prosfy, the annual median salary in Morocco stands at 72,000 dirhams, which translates to the aforementioned monthly figure. This means that half of the reported salaries are below this threshold, while the other half exceed it.
Notably, the salary distribution within the sample reveals considerable variation. The central 50% of earnings range from 48,000 to 174,000 dirhams per year, or between 4,000 and 14,500 dirhams per month. For the top tier of earners, the 10% of salaries surpassing 228,500 dirhams annually equate to about 19,000 dirhams per month. These figures highlight a stark contrast in earnings across different professions within the country.
Interpreting the Salary Data with Caution
It is important to approach these figures with caution, as they do not represent an official statistic for all Moroccan employees. The data compiled for Morocco is based on a mere 125 salary observations, with some professions having fewer than fifteen data points. In contrast, Prosfy has over 122,000 salary records for France, illustrating the disparity in data availability and reliability. The platform gathers its information from job postings, recruitment systems, and user-submitted data, while also ensuring the removal of duplicates and extreme values.
Therefore, the 6,000 dirhams figure should be viewed as an indicator of the observed market rather than the official median salary for all Moroccans. Nonetheless, it remains significantly higher than the minimum hourly wage, which has been set at 17.92 dirhams since January 2026. Moreover, in the public sector, the average net salary had already reached 9,500 dirhams by 2024, denoting a substantial increase over the past decade.
