It is determined, that restrictions regarding the implementation of annual leave can be made only if the worker was granted an opportunity to exersize his right. Workers right to annual leave is ensured by allocating sanctions to employers for improper fulfilment of their duties regarding renumeration in advance. Evaluation of European Court of Justice jurisprudence reveals that provisions laid down by national Government relating to calculation of remuneration for annual leave are not suitable because they might discourage employees to take their annual leave and might encourage employers to abuse their rights.

Annual leave is granted to employees in order for them to rest and regain their efficiency at work. Article 49 of the Constitution of the Republic of Lithuania provides that every employed individual has the right to paid annual leave. For this right to be implemented, the employee should be paid for this period of leave. On 1 July 2017, the new Labour Code of the Republic of Lithuania came into effect. It not specified, how this right to annual leave should be implemented, but also provided for a new legal term – "leave pay" (lith. atostoginiai). This paper seeks to assess the peculiarities of payment for the annual leave after the reform of Lithuanian labor law taking into account the case law. It analyses component parts of leave pay, the rules of granting, prolonging and transferring of leave, as well as possibility of reimbursement for unused annual leave. This research was conducted using the usual methods for this type of research: systemic and document analysis, linguistic, logical and comparative. The paper takes into account the case law of the European Court of Justice interpreting the provisions of the Directive 2003/88/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 4 November 2003 concerning certain aspects of the organisation of working time.

The process of implementing sustainable development started at the end of the 20th century with the aim to balance economic, social and environmental development and minimize damage to humans and the environment. Nowadays, when new economic problems emerge social interest groups lobby, environmental standards are raised, sustainable development becomes an integral part of democratic society and is a particularly relevant object of scientific investigations. Taking into consideration the aspect of sustainable development complex assessment, the research problem can be formulated as follows: how to assess sustainable development comprehensively? This research, according to statistical data analysis (Lithuania's case), identifies multi-criteria method (SAW) as the best method of analyzing sustainable development from the approach of different dimensions (economic, social and environmental). According to the results of SAW method, it can be noted that when a country is improving economic indicators, environmental indicators usually decrease, which in turn determines the characteristics of the social dimension slight decrease.
