Summary/Abstract: This paper explores the legal aspects of labor relations in the context of the circular economy, with special reference to the Western Balkans region. The circular economy, as a sustainable business model that focuses on reducing waste and maximizing the use of resources, brings significant challenges and opportunities for labor relations. They analyze how the existing legal frameworks in the region support or hinder the transition to a circular economy, highlighting key elements such as labor rights, employee protection and adaptability of employment contracts. Special attention is paid to compliance with international standards and European legal regulations. The aim of the work is to indicate the legal reforms needed to encourage sustainable employment models and promote practices that contribute to social inclusion and economic resilience within the circular economy. Through the analysis of examples of good practice and comparative studies, the paper highlights the key obstacles and opportunities for creating a stable and inclusive labor market that responds to the needs of the green transition. The conclusion suggests strategies for adapting legal instruments to support the long-term development of this approach.
