Provocări actuale în reglementarea juridică a antreprenoriatului social în Republica Moldova

Abstract

Social entrepreneurship is a relatively new field that presents challenges for both entrepreneurs and lawmakers. The current socio-political landscape emphasizes the importance of establishing p and supporting social businesses through a comprehensive and applicable regulatory framework. Aligning the provisions of specific laws with tax, labour regulations, and public procurement rules will foster the establishment and growth of social enterprises, enabling them to address local and national community issues. In the Republic of Moldova, social entrepreneurship has emerged as a response to the country’s rapid economic transition and the need for sustainable solutions to social problems. Although the Law 845/1992 on Entrepreneurship and Enterprises (Law 845/1992) defines social enterprises and their role in improving conditions for disadvantaged groups, discrepancies in legislation and enforcement have hinder progress. It is crucial to effectively promote state support mechanisms, such as tax incentives and employment subsidies. Furthermore, enhancing public procurement policies to favour social enterprises will provide additional support for their expansion and social impact. Strengthening the regulatory framework is crucial for the sector’s advancement and its contribution to society.
