How New Labor Law Impacts Your Business In Mongolia www.mongoliaweekly.org

(PwC Mongolia) The revised Labour Law (the “New Labour Law”) was adopted on 2 July 2021 and will come into force next year. The proposal for revising the Labour Law was submitted to the Parliament on March 28, 2018. Furthermore, there had been huge expectations of the revised Labour Law, which replaced the current law after 22 years. With this Tax and Legal Alert, we highlight the key changes in the New Labour Law and its impact on business and payroll calculations.
Application
The New Labour Law will come into force on 1 January 2022. An employment agreement concluded prior to the adoption of the New Labour Law shall be valid for a period agreed upon by the parties. However, if the employment agreement is amended in accordance with the New Labour Law, the legal status and labour conditions of the employee should not be deteriorated.

2. Allowance during a non-compete period
3. Employment deemed to be continuous while employees on a leave
4. Extra pay for night works
5. Annual leave loading
