How do factories solve seasonal labor shortages?
In Hungary, the rules prescribed by the Labor Code apply to employees in the company’s own staff and temporary workers, including foreigners, when granting holidays. From an HR point of view, issuing summer vacations is a challenge every year, both in mental and physical jobs. This is especially true if, for example, a factory does not plan a summer shutdown.
“Employing student workers can be a solution in such cases, but in fact the key is to properly schedule vacations”
– said Magdolna Mihályi, managing director of Jobtain HR Service Provider. He added: foreigners working in Hungary also take advantage of their vacations and actively spend their rest days.
In Hungary, the Labor Code regulates the rights and obligations related to employees’ freedom. This applies to own staff and temporary workers, including foreign workers.
