Do Reasons for the Termination of a Fixed-Term Employment Contract Need to be Explained in Case of a Reduction in the Volume of Work?

Recently, the Supreme Court of the Republic of Serbia, in Decision no. Rev2 742/22 dated June 15, 2023, took the stance that when an employee was aware in advance that their employment was time-limited depending on the nature and volume of work, such an employment may last shorter than a certain tentative period. Consequently, the employer does not have the obligation to explain the reduction in the volume of work in the termination resolution. This would be a situation where the employment contract states that it is concluded for a fixed term, in accordance with Article 37, paragraph 1 of...

Supreme Court: Overtime Work Can Exist Without Employer’s Resolution or Written Request

Recently, the Supreme Court of the Republic of Serbia, in Ruling no. Rev2 3092/21 dated June 22, 2023, took the stance that for the existence of overtime work, it is not necessary for there to be a written request or resolution by the employer to introduce overtime work. Therefore, staying longer at work to complete tasks that by their nature had to be done on the same day constitutes overtime work. Below we analyze the reasoning behind the ruling. Case Circumstances The plaintiff worked as the head of a bank branch, with working hours from 9 am to 5 pm,...

Violation of Privacy Rights through Publication in the Media: Using Photos from Individuals Social Media Profiles

In an era where social media has become an integral part of daily life, the issue of privacy protection is gaining increasing importance. Typically, social media platforms offer mechanisms to control access to the content which individuals share on their profiles, including the so-called profile "locking". On the other hand, content on "unlocked" profiles is accessible to an unlimited number of people, allowing anyone who visits a particular profile to view the content created or published by its owner. Additionally, one of the current topics is the permissibility of publishing photos from "unlocked" profiles of individuals by the media, which...

New Requirements for Electronic Signing of Financial Statements Starting From 2025

As we wrote in one of our previous articles (available here), for the purpose of properly submitting financial statements to the Serbian Business Registers Agency (“SBRA”), it is necessary for the electronic document to be signed with a qualified electronic signature. Previously, in situations where the document was signed by co-signatories, and one of them did not possess a qualified electronic signature (which was most often the case with foreign nationals), the SBRA accepted the financial statement signed with a qualified electronic signature of one signatory along with the written consent of the other signatory, which did not have to...

Competition Safeguarding in Serbia’s Market: A Designed Approach

The Commission for Protection of Competition (“CPC”) and the Republic Secretariat for Public Policy (RSPP), in cooperation with the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), enacted a while back a Control List for Assessing the Impact of Regulations on Competition (“Control List”), which establishes whether a specific proposal or draft regulation could lead to competition distortion in the market. Indeed, competition law has a significant impact on numerous economic and social areas, such as energy, construction, healthcare, education, tourism, and similar sectors. Therefore, when drafting regulations that govern these matters, it is important to consider the competition factor. The...

Nullity of Employment Agreement: Consequences of Missing Mandatory Elements in Employment Agreement

An employment agreement is not only an institute of Labor Law. It is subject to general rules of Law on Obligations as well, as confirmed by the recent ruling of the Supreme Court in case no. Rev2 3365/22 dated October 25, 2023. Namely, in the mentioned ruling, the court took the position that an employment agreement lacking mandatory elements prescribed by Article 33 of the Labor Law of Republic of Serbia ("LL") is null and void. Case Circumstances In the specific judicial proceeding, the contested employment agreement did not contain the amount of salary, nor did the employer have a...
