Popis: The paper analyzes the current statutory provisions on paid personal leave in former Yugoslav republics. The regulation of the right to paid personal leave as it was regulated in former Yugoslavia is taken as the base line against which the current laws of Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia, Montenegro, North Macedonia, and three federal units within the Bosnia and Herzegovina are compared. The goal is to check whether the statutory provisions in these respective countries have changed for better or for worse from the worker's perspective compared to what was prescribed in the former Yugoslavia. The author, also, briefly discusses the possible influence of the EU Directive 2019/1158 on the current provisions on paid personal leave. The author concludes that the statutory provisions on the right to paid personal leave have improved only in Croatia, while Slovenia essentially retained the same quality of this right as it was in former Yugoslavia. The regulation of this right has significantly worsened in Serbia, Republika Srpska, and Brčko District. Hopefully some of the reductions of the scope of this right in these jurisdictions will be repaired by the transposition of the EU directive 2019/1158.
