While employers may deem necessary to adopt a new labor law, union leaders are against it. They find that the law reduces the acquired labor rights.
"Not only the trade unions that reject the bill, but the way will be referred to the MPs because it goes under urgent procedure. Tome opposes many factors in the Republic of Serbian.

The pressure on unions
In the opinion of Ranka Misic, President of the Federation of Trade Unions of the Republic of Serbian, "all of what they [the unions] for years fought the proposed law falls into the water."
She also stated that the new law disputed salary, contract, termination of employment and collective bargaining.
"The protests are democratic, human, constitutional and legal right, though rarely consumed in this region," Misic told a news conference on the eve of the protests.
"Never since organize protests and strikes, and there were twice a year, we did not have so much pressure, fear and advertising political parties, even though I invited them to distance themselves from the trade union work," said Misic.
She added and how the individual members of the union received threats of dismissal if they participated in the protest.
"I have a written statement that in Visegrad in the house, on the threshold of union activists came two policemen without a warrant and a written query to get the information, also, yesterday we had the arrival of the deputies, to jobs in Zvornik and other places where MPs people saying, 'If you can get fired on protests'. That's not right, is not in accordance with the law. This is called the pressure ", said Misic.
Police denies union
From the Ministry of Interior of the Republic of Serbian rejected such allegations, saying that their officers do not visit either union representatives or their rooms, or working pressure of planned gatherings organized by the Confederation of Unions.
"It is the manipulation," said the police.
On the eve of the session of Parliament, the President of Republika Srpska Milorad Dodik called on the workers to take to the streets, because "the proposed law and protect their, and the rights of employers."
RS Prime Minister Zeljko Cvijanovic points out that the Federation of Trade Unions has the right to protest, but it was "unfair as scare mongering and lies that the new labor law abolish workers' rights, and did not wish to take part in negotiations on the bill."
The opposition in the RS consider it necessary to amend the labor legislation in the BiH. Entity, but the law should be discussed in the regular procedure, and not on an expedited basis, with the participation of all social partners.
