Summary/Abstract: Insurance is a specific human activity based on the principles of reciprocity and solidarity. As such, it started developing in the Middle Ages (the first example of insurance in the areas inhabited by the Serbs was the maritime insurance of ship in Dubrovnik); gradually, it was distinguished as a modern scientific and educational discipline whose subject matter was comprehensively framed in the 18th century. For mundane causes, insurance has become an essential element of social life in all countries. It is primarily aimed at meeting the immediate needs of the legal subjects to remove, in particular cases and to a certain extent, the negative (mostly material) effects of certain events. Employment in this socio-economic area can take various forms, in accordance with the nature of insurance itself. The employment status of insurance agents has been determined by the quantitative results of insurance agents’ work, particularly having in mind that their employment status is different from the employment status of other employees working in insurance companies as well as from the position of other employees in general. The differences may imply any kind of status ranging from full time employment to completely flexible modes of employment which may be terminated at any time without being subject to formal dismissal procedure. This can also be referred to as the inertness of employment. The employees in the insurance sector have all the rights and obligations as other employees; therefore, in case of a dismissal, they are entitled to the same rights and obligations (such as a term of notice) as other employees, including the possibility of using other institutes of labour law.
