ATK: The number of undeclared workers falls

“Unaligned employment is a challenging phenomenon for both ATK and other law enforcement institutions, which are tasked with implementing the labour law”, said ATK director Ilir Murtezaj at RTK.

The importance of the employment contract for the employee is both for the employer and the worker, where it affects the growth and credibility of the labour market, until both sides increase accountability.

The working contract charges the parties to pre-announce their work contract cuts: Murtezaj clarified, while suggesting that both sides benefit from the work contract.

On the other hand, Murtezaj stated that in other sectors there were tax evasions, doing information work in those businesses, it comes into the field of gastronomy, restaurants, etc.

Regarding the non-frombal work Murtezaj reported that the contact has been under discussion, suggesting that this activity has been launched since 2021, with cʹrast, as he said, more than 5,200 workers have been identified as informal workers, while in the past year alone, we have over 4100 employees who have been identified unformed and formalised.

Furthermore, Murtezaj highlighted the fact that he published IMF for the ATK job where within 2021-2022, ATK has achieved better results in the region in increasing tax revenues, becoming champion in the region, adding that 1/3 of the growth in revenues stems from increased economic formalisation.

Murtezaj expressed optimism that even this year ATK will be the leader in its activity in the region, until she mentioned the first two months of this year, where over 150m euros have been collected, in percent marking more than 19% increases compared to the same period in the past year and about 25 million more than the same period of 2022.
