Changes in the Slovak Labor Code – Food vouchers

One of the main changes is that under certain circumstances, the employer will not be obliged to provide the food vouchers but instead a financial compensation which will be free from social and health deductions as well as the taxes. 

In regards to this change, the employer will be obliged to adjust the rules, how the selection of the employee will be carried out, i.e. it will be defined to determine:

• a reasonable time limit for selection by the employee,
• the minimum period during which the employee is bound by his choice,
• the procedure in the event that the employee does not make the selection within the specified period.

The details of this choice should be set out by employers in an internal directive.
