Minister"s welcome

The Government of the Republic of Croatia and the Ministry of Economy, Labour and Entrepreneurship, as its constituent, will continue to make efforts and propose complete legal and other solutions, in order to ensure an optimal climate for the development of economy and society, as a whole.

Strengthening of entrepreneurship, reduction of taxes, increasing employment, strengthening of the social security system, reduction of state spending and a greater emphasis on the role of science and new technologies in the economy are the main priorities of the Government’s economic policy.

This Ministry unites three extremely important and interrelated segments: economy, labour and entrepreneurship. Unlike before, when the three segments were divided in separate authorities, today a much stronger Ministry stands behind them, particularly because they are united in a single authority, which is a guarantee that individual issues will be dealt with in a comprehensive way and ensures results of greater quality. Accordingly, in creation of labour law, we take the opinions of the unions in consideration.

The main issues this Ministry will address in the upcoming mandate are promotion of domestic production and export, investment promotion, assistance with restructuring of large economic operators, in order to enter markets independently and successfully, but also creating a stimulating climate for a quicker development of Croatian entrepreneurship. Moreover, we will support cooperation between large and small economic operators, work on the suppression of the grey economy, implement steps in order to make a slow and inert administration more efficient and available to entrepreneurship and economy as a whole.

Finally, it is our goal to solve a current issue of unemployment with all available assets, which can only be done with the increase of production and export.
