Position Paper on the Necessary Changes to the Labor Act
The American Chamber of Commerce in Croatia (AmCham) proposes amendments and modernization of the Labour Act to make the Croatian labour market more flexible, resilient to crises, and competitive within the EU.
Key recommendations include: clearer definitions of wages and benefits, reduced administrative burdens, more flexible working hours and remote work, regulation of occasional home-based work at employees’ request, more precise rules on sick leave and notice periods, as well as clearer provisions on employee postings abroad. The goal is to establish a legal framework that reflects labour market dynamics and supports economic growth.
