Töökorras

Töökorras is a term in Estonian referring to labor standards or work regulations. It encompasses the legal framework governing employment relationships in Estonia, including rules on working conditions, hours, rest periods, and employee rights. The system is established to protect workers' interests while ensuring fair and orderly labor practices. Key components include provisions on minimum wage, working time limits (e.g., maximum 8 hours per day, 40 hours per week), mandatory breaks, and requirements for safe working environments. Töökorras is enforced by the Estonian Ministry of Social Affairs and labor inspectorates, with violations leading to penalties. It reflects Estonia's commitment to upholding labor rights and maintaining a balanced employer-employee relationship, aligning with European Union labor directives.
