NEWS in EMAS! The employer may not allow the employee to work at additional job positions

Article 58 of the Labor Code establishes the requirements of labor legislation regarding the conclusion and regulation of labor contracts for replacement. According to the third part of this article, after working hours, the employer’s consent for working at additional job positions is not required. It is also stated that during working hours, working for replacement is allowed only with the employer’s consent. From February 13, 2025, based on changes to the EMAS subsystem, the employer at the main job will have the right to require the employee’s consent to work at additional job positions when concluding a labor contract.
If the employer activates the subcategory "consent should be obtained when signing a contract for an additional job position," then another employer will face restrictions when hiring the employee for the additional job position. In this case, the employee wishing to be hired at the additional job position must obtain the employee's consent via their personal account in EMAS. If the employer has not activated the specified section in the EMAS subsystem, the employee will be able to freely conclude labor contracts for any number of additional job positions. Indeed, although Article 58 of the Labor Code requires the employer's consent at the main workplace for working at additional positions after working hours, the EMAS subsystem may require consent in any case to allow the work.
