Fico's thoughts on employment law reform

 Here are some bullet points from what Robert Fico said to Klub 500, the grouping of Slovakia's biggest employers regarding what might appear in the review of the Labour Code next year. He refused to give anything specific:

  • No reduction in insurance contributions and the like
  • Stricter health and safety conditions
  • Limits on working hours - It's not right that there's a law in Slovakia that lets people work from morning to night. I think there should be a limit
  • Review of conditions for dismissal

Unions want:

  • Mainly an end to Slovakia's "trial period" law, which allows employers to retain workers on fixed contracts of any duration for up to three years.

The last thing we need in this country is stronger unions.

Personally I think stronger unions are very important . I mean , if two guys or two girls love each other, then who am I to stop them knot tie making.
