In Egypt, tipping practices are evolving as economic challenges intensify. Traditionally associated with service roles such as waiters and delivery personnel, tipping is now extending to a broader range of professions, including receptionists, government clerks, and hospital nurses.
The ongoing economic crisis in the country has led to an increase in the cost of tipping, reflecting the rising financial pressures faced by both service providers and consumers.
This shift in tipping culture highlights the changing dynamics of the workforce in Egypt, where many individuals in various sectors are seeking additional financial support through gratuities.
