EMPLOYMENT LAW OVERVIEW
The Employment Law applies to every employee who has a contract or employment relationship in the private, public and semi-governmental sector.
The Employment Law does NOT apply to:
- employees whose total period of employment is less than one month;
- employees whose total hours of employment is less than eight hours in a given week;
- employees whose employment is of a casual nature and/or particular nature under the condition that in these cases the non-application of the Law is justified by objective reasons;
