LEGISLATIVE UPDATE | Legislative Decree no. 104/2022 effective 13 August 2022
Legislative Decree no. 104/2022 became effective on 13 August, implementing the EU Directive on transparent and predictable working conditions.
The decree expanded the information that employers must provide, limited probation in certain circumstances, protected parallel employment subject to legitimate restrictions and introduced rights relating to predictability and transition to more secure work. It also addressed automated decision-making and monitoring information.
A global template may identify salary and title but omit the Italian CCNL, job level, working-time structure, leave, notice and social-security information. Adding generic legal references at the last minute can create contradictions with payroll or policy.
Employers should align the offer, contract, information notice and privacy materials before the start date. HR should also record delivery and update the package when a material term changes rather than relying on an outdated original annex.
