of illegal employment. You will be protected only if prepared to cooperate with judicial
authorities in court proceedings against your employer or in so far as you bring
charges against your employer for exercising rights arising from the employment
relationship. You may acquire a Delay Permit on the basis of your application or under
compulsory powers, which allows you to stay in the Republic o Slovenia for three
months and can be extended upon expiry for another three months. Within this period
you are entitled to receive free assistance from a court interpreter or translator.
If you are the victim of trafficking in persons or a victim of illegal employment,
you may be granted a temporary residence permit in so far as you are
prepared to cooperate as a witness in the court procedure and your testimony
holds a particular value for the outcome of the procedure. This will
be confirmed by a competent authority of criminal prosecution. If you are a
victim of illegal employment, you may obtain a temporary residence permit
in so far as you brought charges against your employer for exercising rights
arising from employment relationship and, moreover, your physical presence
in the territory of the Republic of Slovenia is important for the court
procedure. This will be confirmed by a court of competent jurisdiction.
Eviction from migrant workers’ residence halls
If you are being threatened by the caretaker, manager, owner or liquidator of residence
halls that they will get the police to evict you in so far as you refuse to move out
yourself, simply ignore these threats!
The police cannot perform eviction from housing as an arbitrary action on its
own or someone else’s initiative. Only a competent court may order eviction
