Confederation of Autonomous Trade Unions of Serbia points out that the draft of the Seasonal Employment Law regulating seasonal and temporary work in certain industries completely abolishes fundamental labour rights stemming from employment, makes the existence of the Labour Law pointless and transforms workers into permanent seasonal, i.e. temporary workers.
In the letter to the Labour Minister, Darija Kisić Tepavčević, CATUS asked for a withdrawal of the draft and a new text to be made by the Ministry staff, without any hurry, in cooperation with representative trade unions and Serbian Employers’ Association so that we could have the law which would solve the issue of the employment of seasonal workers the right way and provide them with protection, just remuneration and adequate working conditions.
