Summary/Abstract: Public institutions founded by the state employ 30,170 people, accounting for more than half of all employees in central-level public administration. According to the Open Data Portal, there are 324 public institutions in Montenegro. Despite their significance, employment and labour relations in public institutions remain a largely neglected area, most often governed either solely by general labour regulations or by inadequate legislation that fails to acknowledge their unique relevance to advancing the public interest, delivering public services, and, more broadly, establishing a merit-based and transparent system.
