   Abstract:

   The employer’s insolvency entails, in addition to potentially devastating economic consequences of output reduction and disruption of economic relations, adverse social costs for employees – the loss of jobs and earnings. It is not only the employee and his or her family who suffered a great loss but the whole society. The society faces a serious question: how to ensure the payment of wages to employees in case of insolvency and provide a solid framework with which the countries can find durable solutions, effectively organise and manage the protection of workers’ claims. This paper analyses achievement in developing the European and national systems of protection of workers’ claims in case of insolvency and shows the progress that has been made by EU countries in having a balance of interests between employers, employees and society in the protection of outstanding claims of employees in the event of their employer’s insolvency.
