In addition, the system also contributes to the harmonisation of the services the agency provides to its customers, on the one hand, and the taxpayers’ money by which these functions are financed, on the other hand.
The manual includes 68 adopted procedures, with a tendency to spread to the regional units.
“The procedure manual was prepared by the team of the Employment Agency headed by FMS manager David Percobic, assistant director of the agency. The Steering Committee of the agency decided to allocate €50,000 for self-employment. This money will be used for opening of ten new jobs in municipalities in the north of the country,” the agency stated.
