condition, spreading from one individual to another, and it is on the verge of becoming an epidemic if not properly addressed. Perhaps the first step toward treatment is isolation and avoiding close contact, and economic reform policies must begin by addressing this disease. The phenomenon of the “disguised employee” has infiltrated government institutions, necessitating serious consideration of how to treat or at least mitigate this issue. The research originates from the significance of the topic, given that real unemployment is typically addressed by the state, while the disguised employee represents a burden on public resources unless effective solutions are implemented. This study seeks to examine the problem defined as follows: “The phenomenon of the disguised employee has become widespread, and if left unaddressed, it will produce multiple effects closely tied to fundamental issues.” The research posits a hypothesis suggesting a direct correlation between several factors, most notably corruption—and the proliferation of this phenomenon. The study concludes with a set of key findings and recommendations. One of the most significant findings is that the term disguised employee, as used in this research, is a localized concept intended to replace the more general term disguised unemployment, whose definition varies between Iraqi and international contexts. Among the principal recommendations is the activation of oversight bodies to limit the prevalence of this phenomenon and the establishment of genuine performance monitoring mechanisms.
