Starting July 8, 2026, the National Labor Inspectorate (PIP) gains expanded powers to reclassify illegal B2B or mandate contracts that function as traditional employment, offering new protection for workers. <\/p>\n
Not every freelance or B2B contract is unlawful. The issue arises when a civil law agreement masks a relationship that functions like traditional employment. This occurs if you work in a specific place and time designated by the company, follow a supervisor’s orders, cannot delegate tasks to others, bear no business risk, and are only responsible for performing duties with due care.<\/p>\n
Complaints can be submitted to the local labor inspectorate via personal delivery, post, email, or the e-Delivery system. Electronic submissions must be signed with a qualified signature or a trusted profile. Simply scanning a signed document is insufficient and may be treated as an anonymous report, which are rarely investigated.<\/p>\n
A formal complaint must include the complainant’s contact details, the employer\u2019s name and address, and a detailed description of the circumstances. Precise information regarding the nature of your duties helps inspectors verify if the contract constitutes a disguised employment relationship. Your identity remains protected, and inspectors cannot disclose the source of the complaint without your written consent.<\/p>\n
Following a complaint, the inspectorate evaluates the actual working conditions rather than just the contract text. If an agreement is found to violate labor laws, the inspector may order the employer to correct the situation. Should the company fail to comply, a binding decision to transform the contract into an employment agreement can be issued, subject to appeal in labor court.<\/p>\n
Successfully proving that your work constitutes a standard employment relationship grants you rights mandated by labor law. These include paid annual leave, sick pay, protection against arbitrary termination, and adherence to established working time regulations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
