New labour migration rules will enter in force from the 1st of
November, 2015. Georgian Government has adopted resolution
regulating the relationship between a local employer and labour
immigrant.
For the purposes of the resolution a labour immigrant is an alien
without the permanent residence permit in Georgia, while a local
employer is a local legal entity, branch of foreign legal entity or an
individual having an employment contract with the immigrant.
Based on the resolution requirement, the employer should inform
about the employment relationship with the labour immigrant to the
LEPL Social Service Agency, Ministry of Labour and Health and
Social Care in Georgia. The notification should be sent during 30
calendar days after execution of employment contract with the labour
immigrant. The notification should include the personal details and
the qualifications of the alien.
Despite, that Labour Code of Georgia does not require to have
employment contract in Georgian language, the resolution states that,
if the employment contract with labour immigrant is executed in
foreign language, notarized Georgian translation should be attached
thereto.
The norms of the resolution does not apply to the contractual
relations, which are in force as of 1st November 2015 till their
expiration.
