In the realm of remote work, Morocco has established its dominance, securing the leading position in the entire African continent with an impressive score of 0.657. Following closely behind are Tunisia at 0.645, Mauritius at 0.630, and South Africa at 0.608, as unveiled by the Global Remote Work Index (GRWI).
Morocco’s Global Recognition and Positioning
Morocco has successfully earned its place in the prestigious global top 50, ranking an impressive 48th out of 108 countries. The top 10 ranks of the GRWI 2023 saw a strong representation from Europe’s northern region, with Denmark, the Netherlands, Germany, Sweden, and Estonia securing prominent positions.
Indeed, in terms of cyber safety, the Kingdom of Morocco is ranked 19 globally, ahead of countries such as Sweden, Singapore, Slovenia, Finland, China, Japan, Canada, the US, the United Kingdom, and South Korea. The study evaluated 108 countries.
Evaluating the Key Pillars: Infrastructure, Economics, and Cybersecurity
Morocco’s commendable performance in the GRWI can be attributed to its competitive edge in key areas. While its physical and digital infrastructure currently ranks at 72, indicating room for improvement, the country compensates through its economic advantages and robust cybersecurity measures.
Despite a slightly lower placement in terms of economic safety, standing at 57 among the 108 nations evaluated, Morocco’s cost-effective living standards present a compelling case for remote professionals seeking a balanced lifestyle without compromising their financial well-being.
