Description
Summary:In the paper the author describes the institute of suspension from work in Republic of Srpska, which is applied in the cases of criminal or disciplinary proceedings against a civil servant, with an aim to protect the interests of the service during the course of criminal or disciplinary proceedings against the officer. Primarily through a review of legislation of Republic of Srpska, as well as through legal solutions in other countries and through a review of a standpoint of legal theory, the author separately analyzes the types of suspension from work of civil servants, the duration of suspension, the salary compensation for the period of suspension, and legal remedies against the decision on suspension from work. The author`s conclusion is that this is a necessary legal institute, but he suggests, as a cumulative condition for suspension from work, a reasonable expectation that the civil servant could be imposed with the most severe punishment in the disciplinary proceedings – the termination of the employment in a civil service. It is also suggested that, by the amendments of law, the Civil Service Board of Appeal is enabled to decide on the existence of the decision on suspension during the entire disciplinary or criminal proceedings.
