In the context of European social and legal culture, the legislature, through family policy, including the legislative measures of the labor legislature, creates conditions for employees - women and men taking care of children and other dependents - not to be subject to economic and social instability. The study analyzes the minimum standards of Directive 2019/1158 on work-life balance for parents and carers and examines the degree of compliance of the required measures with the legislation of the Slovak Republic. We also identify the challenges the country faces in transposing the Directive, including the requirement to introduce a paternity leave institute and the possibility of addressing its financial coverage.
