On 23 November 2015, the President of Kazakhstan approved the
new Labor Code, which will take effect on 1 January 2016. Because
of the significant number of changes and their importance to both
employers and employees, we plan a series of workshops to explain
the main provisions and novelties in the new Labor Code. In
addition, our lawyers have devised a model employment agreement
with all necessary changes taken into account.
If you wish to book a workshop or purchase the model agreement, please feel free to contact us at [email protected].
In our opinion, the most important changes to the labor code of
Kazakhstan are the following:
- Until now, the purpose of labor laws
was to protect the interests of employees. For the first
time, the objective of the labor laws is to create legal conditions
aimed at ensuring a balance of interests of the parties to labor
relationships.
