In this case, when the offence does not constitute an administrative offence,<br />

it constitutes a criminal offence and is punishable by fine or up to two years<br />

In certain cases, the employer might even be responsible for the pollution<br />

of sea water, lakes, or cumulative and distributive network resources of<br />

water with toxic agents, radioactive or other substances that disrupt<br />

ecological balance. This constitutes a criminal offence according to article<br />

it is punishable by five to ten years of imprisonment.<br />

storage, transportation and sale of toxic agents bearing strong effect, he/she<br />

is charged with responsibility under the provisions of Criminal Code and<br />

respectively under article 281 and is punishable by a fine or up to two years<br />

imprisonment. Violation of the rules set for possession, production, use,<br />

Conclusion<br />

Albania has officially expressed its application to join the great <strong>European</strong><br />

family. This requirement dictates the prerequisite of a multi-dimensional<br />

effort, which will take place on time. Further regulations of labor relations<br />

along with approximation of our legislation with international standards,<br />

plays a very important role in the country’s democratization process.<br />
