Severance pay and notice pay are not the same thing in Croatia.

Depending on the circumstances, an employer may need to cover both—along with unused annual leave, outstanding salary, benefits, and any enhanced contractual compensation.

Under Croatia’s statutory framework, eligible employees may be entitled to at least one-third of their average monthly salary for each year of service, generally subject to a six-month salary cap. However, contracts and collective agreements may provide more favorable terms.

Our latest guide covers:

✓ When severance becomes mandatory

✓ How the statutory formula works

✓ Notice periods based on seniority

✓ Redundancy and consultation requirements

✓ Tax and payroll considerations

✓ Risks associated with unlawful dismissal

✓ A step-by-step termination checklist

Salary still matters. But in 2026, it may no longer be the deciding factor.

For global talent, where they live can be just as important as what they earn.

Quality of life, safety, mobility, healthcare, infrastructure, and lifestyle are increasingly shaping where professionals want to build their careers — and that is changing how companies should think about global recruitment.

In our latest article, we explore:

• Why salary alone is no longer enough

• What the 2026 liveability rankings mean for global hiring

• How cities like Copenhagen, locations across Australia, Switzerland, and Japan can strengthen a talent proposition

• Why companies should map skills and liveability together

• How a location strategy can become a recruitment advantage

The question for employers is changing from:

“Where do we need people?”

to:

“Where does the talent we need actually want to live?”

Terminating employment in Croatia involves more than issuing notice and processing a final payment.

Employers must determine whether severance is mandatory, calculate the correct amount, review contractual and collective agreement terms, and follow strict procedural requirements.

Key questions include:

→ Has the employee completed two years of continuous service?

→ Is the dismissal business-related or linked to misconduct?

→ Do both notice pay and severance apply?

→ Are consultation obligations triggered?

→ Does the employee belong to a protected category?

Our 2026 employer’s guide explains Croatia’s severance framework, common compliance mistakes, and the steps required for a lawful termination.

Where should your company hire its next AI engineer?

The United States may offer a mature AI ecosystem. India provides a large and diverse technology talent pool. Poland has become an increasingly attractive European engineering hub. Canada, Israel, China, and the United Kingdom each bring their own strengths—and their own employment requirements.

Choosing the right market means comparing more than talent availability.

Companies must consider compensation, employment law, intellectual property protection, equity, non-compete enforceability, data residency, and GDPR compliance.

Our new guide, “How to Hire AI Engineers Globally in 2026,” breaks down the leading AI talent markets and the practical steps companies need to take when building international AI teams.
