General register of employee registration (REGES)

The normative act that regulates the general register of employees is H.G. no. 905/2007.

Since 15.12.2006, the Labour Inspectorate has made available to employers, free of charge, the Revisal application for the management of the general register of employees in electronic format and for its transmission to the Territorial Labour Inspectorate in whose territorial radius they have their headquarters or domicile.

The Revisal application can simultaneously manage, independently, several electronic registers of several employers, and can be downloaded from the Labour Inspectorate’s website, www.inspectiamuncii.ro.

The general employee register is set up, completed and submitted by the following categories of employers:

  • employers, natural or legal persons;
  • diplomatic missions and consular offices of other states in Romania, for local employees who have Romanian citizenship or permanent residence in Romania.

In the register, the employer’s data is registered, prior to the beginning of the activity, for the persons who are going to work on the basis of an individual labour contract concluded according to the provisions of Law no. 53/2003 – Labour Code.

The responsibility for the accuracy of the data submitted in the register lies solely with the employer.

Employers may contract the service of completing and transmitting data in the register by concluding service contracts with service providers who carry out their activity in accordance with the legal provisions in force, including the provisions on the protection of personal data.

The completion and transmission of data in the register is carried out by one or more persons nominated by written decision of the employers.

Service providers may not subcontract, in turn, the services of completion and transmission of data in the register entrusted by the employer.

Within 3 working days from the date of the conclusion of the contract for the provision of services, the employer is obliged to notify, in writing, the territorial labour inspectorate, in whose territorial radius they have their headquarters/domicile, about the conclusion of the contract for the provision of services as well as the identification data of the provider.

 The contracting of the service of completing and transmitting data in the register does not exempt the employer from the obligations established by law.

Employers or, as the case may be, service providers who complete and submit data to the register are obliged to process the personal data of employees in compliance with the legal provisions on personal data protection.
