Croatia Labour Act (Part II)

Croatian law recognizes part-time and full-time employment contracts. Full-time employment is 40 hours per week. The Labour Act also recognizes employment contracts for permanent seasonal work, performed by seasonal workers. These are used by employees who mostly work seasonally (eg, in the tourism sector). The Labour Act provides for the possibility of employing temporary workers via agencies that hire out workers. Temp workers enter into employment contracts for temporary work with temp agencies. The agencies then conclude contracts for the assignment of workers. Temp agencies must be registered with the competent ministry.
