Labour Law

Labour law regulates employer-employee relations, defines their rights and duties, and establishes the legal status. Labour laws and other normative legal acts of the Republic of Lithuania apply to employment relations within the Republic of Lithuania, regardless of whether an employee is working in Lithuania or abroad by an employer’s order.
Labour law covers the following areas:

• Employment relations;
• Hours of labour and rest;
