Any
employment contract concluded with a foreigner must be in line with the minimum
requirements of Slovenian labour legislation (minimum wage, work breaks,
holidays and other working conditions). The Employment and Work of Foreigners
Act forbids employers imposing costs for obtaining work permits and other
administrative costs on employees and prescribes the minimum housing and
hygiene standards where accommodation is provided to foreign workers. Employers
who fail to meet the legal requirements may not employ foreigners for a period
of up to 10 years.
