In brief

The long-awaited Amendment to the Labor Code was published in the Collection of Deeds on 19 September 2023. This Amendment primarily implements Directive (EU) 2019/1158 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 June 2019 on work-life balance for parents and caregivers, and Directive (EU) 2019/1152 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 June 2019 on transparent and predictable working conditions in the European Union, but also facilitates significant progress in the digitization of labor law documents and changes the method of their delivery.

Most of the changes introduced by the Amendment will become effective on 1 October 2023 (some of the changes will not become effective until 1 January 2024). Below is a brief summary of these changes.
