MAIN CHANGES TO TAX LEGISLATION
1. Regarding amendments to the legislative acts on labour law
regulations
The Head of the Republic of Kazakhstan (further the
"RoK") signed the Law "On amendments and additions
to the legislative acts on labour law regulations" (further
the "Law").
According to the Law, a new model of the Labour Code of the RoK
offers to clearly define the boundaries of the government's
intervention into the relationships between the employer and
employee. In particular, the procedures for hiring, staff rotation,
dismissal, determination of conditions and wages of employees have
been simplified.
The Labour Code sets basic labour guarantees and rights of
employees, which can be extended under a negotiated individual or
collective labour agreement, as well as legal means to protect
their rights and interests.
