Boc said the total number of active contracts has reached 6.3 million, the highest number since 2007.
The new Labor Code, for which the Government received a confidence vote in the Parliament, entered force on April 30.
The European Commission ordered the Government to allow employees who work longer than the standard working time an extra month (from 60 to 90 days) to take free hours and to extend the application of work contracts for definite periods.
The changes will be implemented by this fall, according to a memorandum of understanding between the Government and the Commission.
