The new director general will assume office on 1 April 2019, and the chief operating officer on 1 May 2019.

The new members of the Management Board of HSE were appointed in accordance with a procedure carried out by a recruitment agency. The staffing commission of the Supervisory Board of HSE d.o.o interviewed all nominated candidates and proposed to the Supervisory Board of HSE d.o.o. a shortlist of six candidates.
