Frequently Asked Statutory Questions

How is the statutory notice period (felmondasi idő) calculated in Hungary?

Under Mt. Section 69, the base statutory notice period is 30 days. It increases with continuous tenure: 3 years = +5 days (35 days); 5 years = +15 days (45 days); 8 years = +20 days (50 days); 10 years = +25 days (55 days); 15 years = +30 days (60 days); 18 years = +40 days (70 days); 20+ years = +60 days (90 days).

What is mandatory work exemption (felmentesi idő)?

Under Mt. Section 70, upon dismissal by the employer, the employer is legally obligated to exempt the employee from work for at least half of the notice period. The employee receives their full absence fee (tavolleti díj) during this exemption period.

Who decides when the employee takes the work exemption period?

Under the Labor Code, the employee has the legal right to decide the scheduling of at least half of the work exemption period, usually allocated towards the end of the notice period to facilitate job hunting.

Are unused vacation days cashed out upon termination?

Yes. Under Mt. Section 125, any accrued but unused statutory vacation days must be redeemed in cash (kiadatlan szabadsag megvaltasa) and paid out in the final settlement.

When must the final wage settlement be paid?

Under Mt. Section 80, the employer must pay all outstanding compensation, severance, and vacation redemption, and provide all employment certificates, no later than the 5th working day following termination.
