Summary/Abstract: The aim of the investigation was to describe how employees percieve different effects of the forced leaves, in other words, how they percieve tlieir psychological and social consequences. The sample consisted of 100 workers from the company " Parachute and garment industry " KLUZ " from Belgrade, which had at least once been on the forced leave. They were examinated with the questionnaire. The forced leaves are treated as a stressful factor, because of their ability to provoke the psychological, social and health mall-effects. Also, they require new adaptive actions in order to adjust to the new conditions of work and every-day life. The results show that the most important objective consequences of the forced leaves are financial deprivation and a possibility of higher devotion to the family.
