The author analyses (partly critically) provisions of Article 16, Article 17 and Article 19 of the Romanian Labour Code concerning the written form of the individual labour contract, the obligation to inform the employee on the essential clauses of the contract and the sanction for the failure to fulfil the information obligation with a view to better correlate them with Directive 91/533/EEC of 14 October 1991 on an employer’s obligation to inform employees of the conditions applicable to the contract or employment relationship and with the case-law of the Court of Justice of the European Union on this matter.
