Sažetak
Part-time work has become an important instrument of the national legislators to create new jobs and to respond to employers' demands for increased flexibility. For workers it can be a „bridge“ between employment and inactivity and vice versa, as well as an instrument to achieve a better balance between working life and family responsibilities. The law regulating atypical employment relationship has a complex role to play today: to promote the creation of the desired voluntary part-time work arrangements and to put those workers on equal footing with „standard“ workers. In Croatia only a small percentage of workers work part-time. Unlike workers in other EU member states, especially those with a lower unemployment rate, Croatian workers choose to work part-time mostly involuntarily in the absence of full-time employment opportunities. The authors analyse the advantages and disadvantages of part-time work, regulation of part-time work at the international and regional level, the state of play in Croatia, the case law of the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) and measures encouraging part-time work, and give proposals de lege ferenda.
