Forcing employees to take unpaid leaves due to COVID-19

Dear Questioner,

The company has to agree with the employee about any process taken on current circumstances, such action is illegal as per the law.

Dear questioner,

Unfortunately, the company has the absolute legal right to do that based on the new federal regulations no. 279/2020.

Good luck.

Dear Client,

As per the Ministerial Resolution No. 279 of 2020, this is legal but it should be agreed between the employee and the employer.

Dear client,

Thanks for your query.

Yes as per the latest regulation, your employer can't do this.

Thanks
