The European Parliament to decide how many hours/week to work
European Parliamentarians debated on Monday the directive, the EP website shows. The Labor Force Commission pushed that exceptions to expire in three years since the law entered into force, but ministers pressure to hold on to them and to allow workers to work per week between 60 to 65 hours in some cases.
In Romania, workers have to work at most 40 hours/week and supplementary hours are paid as such or with the free time equivalent. If the directive will be adopted, Romania will have to comply with it.
