The new board of directors of the Employment Institute of Montenegro (ZZZCG) noted today the resignation of the current acting director (acting) of that institution, Gzim Hajdinaga, and appointed David Perčobić as the new acting director, "Vijesti" has learned.
At last week's session, the government appointed three of its officers to the Management Board of the Institute of President Aleksandar Šipčić and members Jelena Sekulić and Marko Ćipović. At the same session, the Government appointed Hajdinaga as director of the Public Institution Center for the Preservation and Development of the Culture of Minorities of Montenegro.
Perčobić was previously the deputy director of the Employment Agency, and he also applied for the directorship in 2022, when he was ranked first in the competition. Then the third-ranked candidate Goran Folić was elected, who was replaced not long after.
After that, two marathon court cases began, Perčobić to prove that the selection of candidates in the previous competition was illegal, and Folić to cancel his dismissal and re-elect him as a director in accordance with the competition.
The dispute was finally resolved in February of this year, when the Government's Appeals Commission ordered the re-establishment of a commission to evaluate candidacies from the 2022 competition, and after the Institute's appeal, the Administrative Court declared itself incompetent for further proceedings.
The then Management Board, which was replaced 20 days ago, sent a request to the Human Resources Administration to appoint a new commission for the re-evaluation of candidatures. However, then the Minister of Labor and Social Welfare, Naida Nišić, proposed to the Government the dismissal of the Board of Directors, with the explanation that they did not initiate the procedure for the election of a new director in accordance with the competition from 2022.
