Summary/Abstract: This paper tries to point out the specifics of one institute from the labor relations segment, namely the changed working conditions and the changes that these new conditions entail in the formal sense, that is, the change in the employment contract between the employee and the employer. It is a relatively new institute in the field of labor relations in our area, which has certain specificities, and this can lead to the termination of the employment relationship, although the termination of the employment relationship is not the intention of the employer when he raises this issue (at least in most cases it is not, but abuse of contract, of course, is). However, due to the sensitivity of workers to any violation of their rights regarding employment relationships, disagreements often arise that lead to the termination of the employment relationship. The opinion of the author of this paper is that both parties should realistically look at all the circumstances that arise in such a situation, and here we are primarily thinking of the worker. Iin a way, workers should with “cool-heads” look at what is offered to them as an option in the new employment relationship, and after that make a decision whether to accept the offer or not. In any case, the worker is left with the possibility to try to prove the illegality of the changed conditions at the competent court.
