Sažetak
Free movement of workers makes an essential part of the freedom of movement of persons as one of the four fundamental freedoms of the common European market. At the same time, it constitutes the fundamental right of European citizens to move freely in the EU Member States, which differentiates them significantly from economic immigrants penetrating to the common market from third countries. Republic of Hungary became a member of the EU within the framework of an extensive enlargement in 2004, hence it has recorded significant experience and trends in the field of the freedom of movement of workers. Its neighbour, Republic of Croatia, has made progress in pre-accession negotiations and, in line with the intensive closing of negotiation chapters in relation with harmonisation of the national legislation with the acquis communautaire, its full membership is expected to take place in either 2012 or 2013. On the eve of its full membership, Croatia faces numerous challenges set by free movement of workers which, entirely justified, opens issues referring to the influence of the freedom of movement on the domestic labour market, waves of economic migration of Croatian citizens to other Member States, as well as an inflow of other EU citizens into Croatia. It may be expected that a considerable number of educated Croatian workers will leave Croatia, a relatively small country with a high rate of unemployment, continuing in that way the tendency that started in unstable, transitional and war-affected nineties in the last century. Experience gained in that field by the Republic of Hungary, a neighbouring country with its own political and economic transitional ethos, is definitely significant and may provide answers to open questions and dilemmas or serve as a legitimate potpourri for estimation of future situation.
