Overtime
work shall only be permitted as an exception in certain cases (art. 144 of LC). The
duration of the overtime work performed by one employee in one calendar year
shall not exceed 150 hours (art. 146, para. 1 of LC). The
law stipulates restrictions regarding the duration of the overtime work
performed in one calendar month, one calendar week, and two consecutive working
days (art. 146, para. 2 of LC). Specified are the cases where the said
restrictions do not apply (art. 146, para. 3 of LC). The
law makes provision for cases where overtime work is inadmissible (art. 147, para. 1 and 2 of LC). The employee shall be entitled to refuse to work
overtime, in case the provisions of the Labour Code, of another normative act,
or of the collective agreement are not observed (art. 148 of LC). The
employer shall keep a special register to account for overtime work (art. 149, para. 1 of LC). Overtime work performed during the calendar year
shall be accounted for before the Labour Inspectorate until 31st
January of the following calendar year (art. 149, para. 2 of LC). Labour remuneration in an increased amount shall
be paid for overtime work (art. 150 of LC and art. 262 of LC).
