Beschreibung

This book presents an in-depth, comparative analysis of the legal and social policy challenges arising from EU accession in Central and Eastern European countries, promoting a comparative understanding of the impacts on labour and social security law resulting from participation in the EU. Membership in the European Union has profoundly influenced the development of labour and social security law in the countries that joined it in 2004. Key areas such as anti-discrimination law, working time regulations, rules on posting workers, and work-life balance have undergone significant transformations. EU accession has also reshaped how social security regulations work, while fundamental aspects of employee-employer relations, including collective bargaining and occupational health and safety, have seen notable changes as well.
The book not only addresses the main characteristics and current dynamics of social law regulations in an ever-evolving Europe but also provides valuable insights into methods for addressing these challenges through improved labour regulations.
This book offers an essential resource for understanding the complexities and dynamics of labour and social security law in the context of EU enlargement, offering critical perspectives on both historical developments and future trends.
