EUROPEAN COURT OF JUSTICE (ECJ) LAYS DOWN SUBSTANTIAL DUTIES OF EMPLOYERS FOR THE RECORDING OF WORKING TIME BASED ON THE WORKING TIME DIRECTIVE
In its judgment of 14 May 2019 (case C-55/18) the ECJ ruled that the working time directive (Directive 2003/88/EC) required every employer to record the working time of employees and obliged each member state to ensure that each employer would set up an objective, reliable and accessible system measuring the duration of time worked each day by each employee.
