The Romanian parliament is currently debating a draft law that would allow employees to request up to two days off per calendar year for medical screenings / early disease detection. Although the draft does not explicitly state this, the aim appears to be to encourage early detection of diseases, particularly oncological conditions.
These days off would be available under certain conditions and are expected to be paid by the employer.
The draft is now before the Deputies Chamber (the second / final chamber). The approval deadline is not yet known.
