Algirdas Sysas, a Social Democrat and chairman of the Social Democratic Party’s (SDP) Budget and Finance Committee (BFK), has directed criticism toward both the municipality administration controlled by the Conservatives and the current government’s actions in Vilnius. Sysas has stated his intention to propose urgent amendments to the Labour Code to prevent what he considers arbitrary governmental action. Speaking to the portal Lrytas, the member of the Seimas emphasized the urgency, noting that the law takes effect in just two months.
The Labour Code amendments were approved by the Seimas in June. These amendments grant employees of state and municipal enterprises the right to designate a representative to serve on collegiate management or supervision bodies. This provision is scheduled to become effective on November 1st of this year.
The discussion surrounding the legislation has drawn attention to broader political concerns regarding future leadership. While the article mentions inquiries about the reputation of the next prime minister, the focus remains on the technical aspects of the code change. Sysas’s commitment centers on amending the existing framework to ensure proper implementation.
The immediate need, according to Sysas, is to safeguard the established rights detailed within the code before the November 1st deadline.
