Abstract

One of the pillars of European economic integration is free mobility of employees. The current legal system of the EU facilitates the cross-border mobility of employees and unification of families. The paper analyses the main issues related to the mobility, deals with the elimination of barriers in the EU labour market and also points out the employment conditions for foreigners working in the Slovak Republic. Geographical labour mobility continues to be an important issue for the EU institutions. The efficient allocation of labour within the EU contributes to achieving the objectives of the Europe 2020 growth strategy. Intra-level mobility is regarded as a means to modernize labour markets, and by developing labour skills, the labour participation can be increased and the labour supply and demand can be better matched. This can be achieved by strengthening the institutional framework for mobility, developing effective information networks and removing mobility barriers, such as ensuring social security rights, recognition of qualifications, promotion of languages capacity and access to services and housing. In order to analyse the problems of employee’s mobility, it is necessary to identify relevant legislation which is fundamental for free mobility of the employees. The basic method used for our research was the analysis of factors and relations linked to the mobility of workforce in EU. Our inquiry resulted in a summary study of varied links between studied phenomena and in unveiling the causes and prospective tendencies related to them.
