This editorial policy explains how Uzdarbiai.lt chooses topics, checks sources, prepares articles, translates content, and corrects inaccuracies. It applies to public articles, guides, hub pages, and other informational content on the site.
Mission
Our mission is to help readers understand Lithuanian work, tax, self-employment, migration, and practical finance rules. After reading an article, a person should know where to find the official source, which terms matter, what steps are usually required, and when a qualified specialist or institution should be contacted.
Source Standard
We prefer primary and official sources: the State Tax Inspectorate, Sodra, Migration Department, Seimas, State Labour Inspectorate, legal registers, and other public institutional information. When a topic involves platforms, job search, or practical workflows, we additionally ask whether the information is verifiable, current, and useful for readers.
If an article is based on a proposal, draft, or planned change, the text must make clear that it is not yet a final rule. The headline and introduction should not make a debated measure look as if it has already entered into force.
Production Process
A typical article starts with topic validation: whether there is a real reader need, whether official sources are available, and whether another stronger article already covers the same search intent. We then prepare the structure, plain-language explanations, practical examples, internal links, source links, and, where useful, a question-and-answer section.
The Lithuanian version is treated as the master version for major guides. English and Ukrainian versions are prepared from that base. Translations should not be blind word-for-word copies: terms and examples need to be understandable for the target reader, and categories/internal links must match the language of the page.
Corrections and Updates
If we receive a justified correction or find that an official source has changed, we review and update the article. Small language fixes may be made without a separate notice. Substantial factual changes should be incorporated in a way that helps the reader understand the updated situation.
Possible mistakes can be reported by email at info@uzdarbiai.lt or through the Contact page. A useful report includes the article URL, the problem, and, where possible, an official source.
Advertising, Partnerships, and Independence
Advertising or partnerships must not change editorial conclusions. If affiliate or sponsored links are used, they should be clearly separated from the editorial explanation and must not mislead readers. We write carefully about taxes, labour law, migration, and finance because these topics can affect real decisions.
Limits of Responsibility
Uzdarbiai.lt content is informational and educational. It is not individual legal, tax, financial, or migration advice. Readers should always verify current information in official sources and contact a qualified professional when the situation is complex.
Sources, corrections and editorial independence
Our editorial policy gives priority to primary sources. For tax, social insurance, labour law, migration and parliamentary-proposal topics, this means checking official institutional pages, draft legislation, adopted laws, ministry explanations and public databases. Secondary sources can help with context, but they should not be the only basis for claims about rights, duties, deadlines or amounts.
Numbers, dates and practical conclusions should be verified separately from headlines. If an article is based on a proposal, draft wording or press release, the article should make clear whether the change is already in force. Where possible, we link to official sources so readers can check the original document themselves.
The editorial process may use technical tools, including translation, structuring or text-editing assistance, but the final purpose must be a clear, useful explanation for humans. Automated or externally sourced text should not be published without added value, source checking and editorial review.
When we receive a substantiated correction, we check it against sources and update the page where needed. Commercial cooperation, advertising or partner links, if introduced, must be clearly separated from editorial decisions. For online-income or financial-decision topics, avoiding promises of guaranteed profit is a mandatory editorial rule.
When an article is translated into another language, the translation must preserve the meaning of the Lithuanian source and must not add unverified promises or interpretations. Language adaptation is acceptable only when it helps the reader understand the Lithuanian context. Each language version should have a clear relationship with its source article and provide value to its own audience, rather than functioning as an automatic copy.
