Summary/Abstract: During the Covid 19 pandemic, labour law provided some of the most effective levers for limiting the effects of the economic crisis that accompanied the sanitary crisis. It is further evidence that labour law, which is flexible and adaptable, can be used in crisis situations as a tool for restoring social and economic relations. Each Member State has implemented its own strategies, but some common elements can be easily identified. The study aims to highlight the Romanian options and their effects in terms of labour relations, in the context of a comparative law analysis of policies to reduce the economic consequences of the pandemic crisis. The main measures envisaged are the suspension of employment contracts and the reduction of working time, both of which aiming to avoid redundancies and to maintain a minimum level of workers' income.
