Nonstandard work in Croatia: Challenges and perspectives in selected sectors

The book is based on the desk research and the interviews implemented by the team of IRMO researchers. The publication is focused on the activities of the trade unions and employers related to increase of the nonstandard work in the sectors of construction, metal industry, retail trade, public healthcare and agency work. The research was made within the project ‛PRECARIR – The rise of the dual labour market: fighting precarious employment in the new member states through industrial relations’ financed by the European Commission, DG for Employment, Social Affairs and Inclusion, and implemented between December 2014 and September 2016. The book uses a qualitative and comparative approach to analyse various dimensions of nonstandard employment, including low pay, irregular working hours, job security and representation of workers’ rights. The analysis shows that since outbreak of the crisis Croatia introduced additional flexibility in its labour legislation. This primarily concerned the nonstandard types of employment which contributed to further dualization of Croatian labour market. The book brings an updated version of the text first published in April 2016 by the CELSI institute from Bratislava as the ‛PRECARIR country report: Croatia’.
