Hiring in El Salvador

El Salvador is a Central American nation located on the Pacific Coast. This small republic is known for its strong coffee, strong chocolate, and colourful clothing made using traditional local dyes.

El Salvador’s 6.8 million inhabitants have experienced a chequered history since gaining sovereignty, with numerous coups and a civil war that lasted from the 1970s to the 1990s seeing many Salvadorian emigrating to the US and neighbours Honduras and Guatemala.

El Salvador’s economy has struggled due to both war and natural disasters and the decision was made in 2001 to allow the US dollar to become legal tender. This means all formal payments are made in dollars, and makes it easier for Salvadorians working abroad to send money back to El Salvador without suffering unfavourable exchange rates.

Hiring in El Salvador can be challenging, with corruption, informal contracts and unregulated working practices common.
