  Temporary agency work was introduced into Hungarian law on the 1st July 2001. After nearly two decades of experience and numerous legislative changes, the domestic regulation of agency work is still not finished or coherent, and it is burdened with a number of EU harmonization shortcomings, constitutional concerns and practical problems. The purpose of this study is to examine the Hungarian legal regulation of temporary agency work from the point of view of EU law, while also highlighting a number of issues of domestic law that need to be clarified.

  The study describes the concept and the legal status of the victim of sexual violence in view of the fact that the definition of victim in criminal procedure law is not the same as the broader definition of victim used in criminology at domestic or international levels. The Me Too movement drew attention to a problem in 2017 that is still waiting to be solved years later: preventing and eradicating violence against women, as well as making the role of the victims during procedure and their legal options more effective. A brief, overview categorization of this legal situation shows what emerging tendencies can be discovered in the European Union’s legislative process nowadays, and based on these, what the problematic areas are in domestic law where change is needed.

  The concepts of status and contract are well-established and frequently used analytical categories of good explanatory power in classical and contemporary international labour law literature. Since the interpretation of these concepts varies from era to era and from author to author, recent Hungarian legal literature has paid little attention to the interpretation of legal developments along this theoretical framework, although it could serve as an effective reference point for grasping the trends of existing law. This paper attempts to apply these concepts to describe the regulatory trends in a volatile and conflictual area of law, namely working time.
