In one case, the officers visited the site of a primary producer who had three unreported employees found while working. The inspection occurred after the siteʼs watermelon consignments had previously been stopped by NAV employees at Szolnok (105 km east of Budapest).
The driver did not have an invoice, a time stamp, or an EKÁER report for the delivery, so the investigation continued at the site.
In another case, 13 people were found by law enforcement officers while weeding on a farm, and the primary producer who employed them had failed to report them. Both primary producers can expect a default fine of up to HUF 1 million for undeclared employees.
Producing journalism that is worthy of the name is a costly business. For over 30 years, the publishers, editors and reporters of the Budapest Business Journal have striven to bring you business news that works, information that you can trust, that is factual, accurate and presented without fear or favor.Newspaper organizations across the globe have struggled to find a business model that allows them to continue to excel, without compromising their ability to perform. Most recently, some have experimented with the idea of involving their most important stakeholders, their readers.
