ZAGREB, Feb 3 (Hina) - The labour, social welfare and public health committee of Croatia's House of Representatives on Thursday accepted a proposal of the Government that Monday, February 7, should be a non-working day when the
Croatian parliamentary run-off is scheduled. The Government has forwarded in the parliamentary procedure a draft bill on re-distribution of working hours from 7 February. Under the bill these working hours should be actually performed on a day off within next 30 days or six months after the proposed act takes effect. In case employers do not determine when those hours should be worked off, they have to pay 7 February to employees as if they worked on February 7 and the pay will be as for every normal working day.

ZAGREB, Feb 3 (Hina) - The labour, social welfare and public health
committee of Croatia's House of Representatives on Thursday
accepted a proposal of the Government that Monday, February 7,
should be a non-working day when the Croatian parliamentary run-off
is scheduled.
The Government has forwarded in the parliamentary procedure a draft
bill on re-distribution of working hours from 7 February.
Under the bill these working hours should be actually performed on a
day off within next 30 days or six months after the proposed act
takes effect.
In case employers do not determine when those hours should be worked
off, they have to pay 7 February to employees as if they worked on
February 7 and the pay will be as for every normal working day.
Endorsing the bill, the labour committee and the economy committee
of the National Sabor's lower house proposed the erasing of a
provision from the text which reads that the 7 February as a non-
working day can be worked off on days of the rest in the week. The
committees cautioned that it might make it possible for employers
to abuse it and order the work on Sunday.
