The American Chamber of Commerce (ACC) urges the Kosovo government to come out with an official clarification whether the General Collective Agreement is legally binding to all enterprises in Kosovo, and what course action should be taken by those companies which have not given their consent. Representatives from the ACC in Kosovo believe that this collective agreement would add further pressure on the private sector, thus slowing its growth. "Such collective agreements should be avoided, given that they discourage private companies from hiring more employees, and make Kosovo a less attractive location in the eyes of potential foreign investors compared to countries in the region,” said ACC representatives.
