Law on Labour


O RADU

Bosnia and Herzegovina

The Law on Labour stipulates that the employment relationship with the worker terminates by force of law once an employee reaches 65 years of age with at least 15 years of insurance (general condition for termination of employment). However, those persons who have exercised the right to an old-age pension before reaching the age of 65 have the opportunity to re-establish employment on the basis of an employment contract and to work until they reach the age of 65. Beneficiaries of an old-age pension over the age of 65 have the possibility to be employed and to continue working on the basis of a temporary and occasional employment contract and an employment contract.
