A detailed AS LEGATT update explaining the practical impact for businesses in Serbia, with preparation steps, controls and management recommendations. This guide explains how to organise responsibilities, documentation and internal controls so that compliance supports, rather than interrupts, day-to-day operations.
Employee data and contracts
Personnel records must be complete, current and consistent with contracts and registrations.
A practical procedure should specify who prepares the data, who reviews it, who authorises the final action and where evidence is stored. Internal deadlines should be earlier than statutory deadlines, and exceptions should be documented rather than handled informally.
- Assign a responsible person and a backup.
- Use a short control checklist before submission or payment.
- Reconcile records with an independent source.
- Keep proof of approval, submission and payment.
