    Journal Article

    Publics’ interest is lately focused on establishing so called principle of flexicurity, or flexible safety, and its effects on individuals. Principle presents a big challenge when executing and realizing aims of European employment strategy, and also with executing national employment politics. Flexicurity is in fact an answer to all higher demands of globalisation and competition and also answers all higher needs of adaptability of employed and companies. Principle combines four interconnected components in order to achieve high synergy of effects and balance. Objectives of flexicurity are improvement of existent conditions in European Union labour market and to enable higher participation rates in labour market for individuals (reduction of segmentation), easier adaptation of workers and companies, reducing unemployment (mainly specific groups), supporting entrance to labour market and easier and faster transitions between different contracts (increasing safety with non standard employments and fixed-time employments). Introduction of flexicurity in present economic situation is not a choice but a condition of competitive position and economical growth and development. It is a dynamic mechanism of adaptation to situation and is becoming more important in time of world crisis.
