MASIT held a professional workshop on the topic “ICT, Regulation, and Human Capital”
The discussion was enriched with valuable perspectives from other sectors as well, thanks to Ms. Kristina Spiroska from Halkbank, Mr. Slavko Sazdovski from Triglav Life Insurance, and Mr. Dejan Pavleski from Semos, who shared their practical experiences from the banking and insurance industries.
The closing segment highlighted specific conclusions and recommendations for further action. One of the key outcomes of the event was the initiative to form a MASIT working group to propose amendments to the Labor Law in line with the ICT industry’s specific needs. It was also proposed to organize thematic roundtables including all relevant stakeholders — institutions, companies, and experts — to align regulation with current conditions and needs.
The event was held at Halkbank‘s premises, a patron partner of MASIT, whose support and hospitality were essential for the successful organization of the meeting.
