Can an employer not pay wages during martial law and in what cases?
Share
The employer is obliged to pay wages even during martial law, if the employer can provide work for employees and they fulfill their duties. It is possible not to pay wages only if employees cannot perform their work for valid reasons (for example, due to hostilities or other extraordinary circumstances), or if they do not perform their work without valid reasons.
● A delay in the payment of wages is possible if there are objective obstacles to their timely payment, but the employer must still intend to pay them when circumstances and opportunities allow for the fulfillment of obligations.
