Legislation to implement the Posted Workers Directive in
Croatia will become effective on 30 July 2020.
In mid-January 2020, a proposal for legislation to implement the
Posted Workers Directive (Directive (EU) 2018/957 amending
Directive 96/71/EC concerning the posting of employees in the
framework of the provision of services) was put into the public
consultations procedure.
According to the published proposal, this legislation will be
adopted and become effective in Croatia on 30 July 2020.
The aim of this new legislation is to provide a higher level of
protection for employees posted or assigned to Croatia from abroad
(with a temporary exemption for road transport employees). It is
also designed to prevent and combat abuse and circumvention of the
applicable rules on posting of employees by certain service
providers more efficiently.
