The self-service of Labour Inspectorate

The self-service also has information about the workers of the company; therefore, it only takes a moment to designate a work environment representative.

At the moment, maintenance allowance can be applied for through court proceedings or execution proceedings. Due to the amendment to the Family Benefits Act, the payment of maintenance in case of bankruptcy proceedings will be added. This means that maintenance will be paid to children whose parents are involved in bankruptcy proceedings.
