UNUSED VACATION DAYS FOR 2020 EXPIRE

National Labor Inspectorate reminds at its web portal that the statute of limitations of employee’s paid leaves from 2020 expire until the end of 2022. All days of paid leave, whether postponed or not for the next calendar year, can be used until the end of their two-year statute of limitations with the employer’s permission.

The labor legislation regulates that every employee is obliged to use his/her paid annual leave until the end of the calendar year in which it is due. The employer has the obligation to inform the employees at the beginning of the year about the days due and about the days left over from the previous year and to advise them to use it. You can read more at Laboure Inspectorate.
