Amendments to the Act on Co-operation within Undertakings
The Government aims to reform working life legislation to remove barriers to employment and, in particular, to strengthen the operating conditions of small and medium-sized companies. The amendments to the Co-operation Act are among the Government’s labour market reforms. The aim is to reduce the administrative burden caused by legislation, especially in companies with fewer than 50 employees.
The first phase of the legislative project would implement the Government Programme’s entries on raising the threshold for applying the Co-operation Act and reducing the minimum duration of change negotiations by half. It will be evaluated in the second phase of the project whether the board representation of employees should be amended.
