Working hours and time zones
For UK and European employers, Kenyan working hours overlap almost completely with your business day, as Kenya is just 2–3 hours ahead. For US and Canadian employers, we source candidates able to cover your mornings or work US-aligned shifts, and we confirm hours with every candidate before they reach your shortlist.
