Unions have launched a campaign against the change in the definition of employment, demanding the withdrawal of the proposal
Trade unions have launched a campaign against a proposed change in the definition of dependent work, warning against the expansion of the so-called "sham employment" system. They demand the removal of this proposal from the labor code amendment and the retention of the current wording. If their demands are ignored, they are prepared to escalate pressure. The amendment accompanies a new law on platform work, which aims to ensure minimum working conditions for platform workers. Critics argue that the proposed changes could legalize a significant portion of sham employment, affecting tens of thousands of individuals. Unions are mobilizing employees to raise awareness about the implications of sham employment and provide support for potential transitions from employment to self-employment.
