Samenvatting

The Supreme Court of the Republic of Slovenia has issued a judgment concerning the contractual relationship between a worker who had an employment relationship with a de facto employment agency (the ‘agency’) but was continuously working for a port operating company. Given that the ‘agency’ was not registered for the activity of providing labour to a user company and that the agency work was not temporary, the Court found such behaviour constituted a breach of the fundamental requirements arising out of Directive 2008/104/EC on temporary agency work.
