The basic relevant information should therefore reach them in writing at the latest on the first day of the employment. within three working days of the start of employment, but on the first day of the employment relationship this same information shall be provided orally. It should be possible to extend the three-day deadline for providing the basic information to a maximum of one week in exceptional circumstances, such as in the case of abnormal functioning of the human resources services of the company. The remainder of the information should be provided within a reasonable period thereafter, but in any event within 15 days of the start of employment.

(28) The consultation on the European Pillar of Social Rights showed the need to strengthen enforcement of Union labour law to ensure its effectiveness. As regardsThe evaluation of Directive 91/533/EEC, the REFIT evaluation41 conducted under the Commission´s Regulatory Fitness and Performance Programme, REFIT41 , confirmed that strengthened enforcement mechanisms could improve itsthe effectiveness of Union labour law. It showed that redress systems based solely on claims for damages are less effective than systems that also provide for sanctions (such as lump sums or loss of permits) for employers who fail to issue written statements. It also showed that employees rarely seek redress during the employment relationship, which jeopardises the goal of the provision of the written statement, which is to ensure that workers are informed about their essential features of their employment relationship. It is therefore necessary to introduce enforcement provisions which ensure the use either of favourable presumptions where information about the employment relationship is not provided, and/or of an administrative procedure under which the employer may be required to provide the missing information and may be subject to sanction if it does not. That redress should be subject to a procedure by which the employer is notifiedthe employer does not do so. Such favourable presumptions could include a presumption that the worker has an open- ended employment relationship, that there is no probationary period or that the worker has a full-time position, where the respective information is missing. That redress should be subject to a procedure by which the employer is notified by the worker or by a third party such as worker´s representatives or other competent entity or authority, that information is missing and has 15 days in which to supply complete and correct information. __________________ 41 SWD(2017)205 final, page 26.
