The enforcement procedure in the Republic of Serbia represents a key legal mechanism for the realization of creditors' rights and the execution of court decisions, playing a significant role in maintaining legal certainty and market stability. However, it is equally essential that this procedure is conducted with respect for the fundamental human rights of debtors and other participants in the process to ensure a fair balance between competing interests. This paper analyzes the fairness of the enforcement procedure through the lens of protecting the rights of the parties, with particular emphasis on the application of international and domestic legal standards. The research focuses on key human rights, including the right to a fair trial, the right to peaceful enjoyment of property, the right to privacy and family life, and the right to a home, exploring their application and protection within enforcement proceedings. The rights of parties and participants in enforcement procedures are ensured through numerous legal mechanisms, including the right to appeal, the possibility of third-party objections, and the principle of proportionality in enforcement. These principles aim to guarantee a fair procedure while respecting human rights, thereby maintaining a balance between protecting the interests of creditors and the rights of debtors. Additionally, the paper examines the principle of debtor protection, which, although not explicitly prescribed by the Law on Enforcement and Security, plays a crucial role in ensuring the fairness of the procedure
