Legal Affairs Committee Decided Not To Change the Guard Time Regulation

While during the meeting of 6 March, the Committee voted in favour of the proposals of the Chamber, it now decides to leave the amendments concerning guard time out of the Employment Contracts Act draft.

Recently we were able to be happy about the decision of the Legal Affairs Committee with which the committee supported our proposal to allow for a more flexible guard time in addition to the IT sector, also in other areas. Additionally, the Committee took into account our proposal that the fee for the use of the guard time exception payable to an employee should not be higher than the regular guard time fee.

At the moment we do not have the information, why the decision made at the beginning of the month was revoked and all of the amendments related to guard time were left out of the draft.
