The Union of Free Trade Unions of Montenegro (USSCG) believes that a seven-hour working day and a five-day work week could contribute to the workforce.
They are ready to seek compromise on, as they emphasize, this complex issue.
"Regarding this model announced by the Prime Minister and Minister Nišić, we are not familiar with it. We welcome this story. As a responsible organization, based on the arguments of both sides, we will make our maximum contribution to ensuring that such a model is adopted as soon as possible. We are convinced that a legal model can be found that is for the benefit of all of us, that it will push things forward for both employers and employees," Srđa Keković, Secretary General of the USSCG, told Television Vijesti.
Prime Minister of Montenegro Milojko Spajić said earlier today that, after extensive consideration of how to find a model that would satisfy both unions and employers, they are close to a solution regarding the introduction of a seven-hour working day.
The Prime Minister announced that at the beginning of next week, the Minister of Labor and Social Welfare, Naida Nišić, will lead talks within the framework of social dialogue with representatives of unions and employers, where, as he said, the final version of the reform will be crystallized.
The Union of Employers of Montenegro (UPCG) announced earlier today that the seven-hour working day should be nurtured and affirmed not as an obligation but as an option.
