On 24 September, the Foreign Investors Council (FIC) hosted an Insight session, named “the Draft Law on e-Sick Leave: Employer Perspective”, gathering government officials, HR professionals, and business representatives at the European House in Belgrade.
The event was moderated by our Partner Milena Jakšić Papac, head of our employment practice group and President of the FIC HR Committee, supported by Vice President Đorđe Milovanović, from Yettel Srbija.
The session centred on the upcoming digitalisation of sick leave, viewed as a key step toward a more streamlined and transparent system. It served as a platform for constructive dialogue between government representatives and the business community on how best to ensure practical and effective implementation.
Discussions gave particular attention to the implications for employers, employees, and HR processes. Speakers emphasised the need for solutions that reflect real business practices, as well as the value of ongoing cooperation between the private sector and policymakers in shaping future employment regulations.
The event concluded with a Q&A session, reinforcing the importance of the continuous exchange between the private sector and policymakers in shaping labour regulations that meet the needs of both employees and employers.
