Harmonisation of work and family life - the perspective of Czech and European law
Fantová, Karolína ; Koldinská, Kristina (advisor) ; Munková, Gabriela (referee)
Harmonisation of work and family life - the perspective of Czech and European law Harmonising work and family life is a very topical issue today. Employees no longer want to choose between work and care; they want the possibility to do both. The legal framework responds to this need - it creates conditions that support this harmonisation. This has a positive impact on productivity and employee satisfaction. Moreover, balancing work and family life positively influences societal factors, such as demographic stability and sustainable economic growth, making it a politically intriguing topic as well. The thesis offers a comprehensive view of the work and family life harmonisation in the context of the current legislation in the Czech Republic and within the European Union, focusing especially on caregivers. The main goal of the thesis is to provide readers with a comprehensive overview of current legislation concerning the harmonisation of work and family life, particularly focusing on flexible forms of employment, obstacles at work from the employee's side, and financial security in situations where the employee cannot work due to caring for another person. The thesis further examines European law standards and their impact on domestic legislation, noting also the non-legislative initiatives of the...

Within the scope of this dissertation, fundamental attention is devoted to the analysis of individual types of the employer's liability for damage caused to the employee and to a critical insight into the complexity of their legal provisions and their real usability. International comparisons are also provided in places, where it is appropriate and useful. A number of concrete suggestions de lege ferenda are also provided. The first part is devoted to a basic insight into this issue, but in addition to it, it also contains a clear statistic comparison of the amount of court decisions carried out in cases of lawsuits on fulfilment of the relevant types...

Vopatová, Petra ; Koldinská, Kristina (advisor) ; Štefko, Martin (referee)
Exceptionally reimbursable health services Abstract The Charter of Fundamental Rights and Freedoms guarantees all insured persons the right to be provided with reimbursed health services and medical equipment on the conditions stated by law. The legislation is based on several laws, which define the insurance contributions, health insurance company's duties including the financial ones, and the extent of reimbursable health services and other conditions for the reimbursement. Due to limited financial sources available in public health insurance system the extent of reimbursable health services is limited. Nevertheless, there are exceptional cases when there is just one and only therapy suitable for the insured person. In these cases, the insured person has right to be provided with exceptional reimbursement of such health service even if it's not systematically reimbursed. The health care insurance companies, with some exceptions, are requested to approve that the situation is such and right to exceptional reimbursement exists. Health insurance companies have a duty to provide the best possible reimbursed treatment while maintaining the stability of the public health insurance system. Health insurance companies have to be able to interpret and evaluate in a legally appropriate way facts that originate in...

Access to employment from a gender equality perspective
Čejchanová, Michaela ; Koldinská, Kristina (advisor) ; Matějka Řehořová, Lucie (referee)
Access to employment from a gender equality perspective Abstract This thesis examines access to employment from a gender equality perspective. However, the content of the thesis has been narrowed down and focuses on access to employment in terms of unequal pay for women and men. The topic of the thesis has been chosen in view of its topicality in the context of the proposed Proposal for a Directive to enhance transparency in remuneration, which will have a significant impact on the Czech Republic. The main objective of the thesis is to present the issue of wage and salary inequality, to evaluate the current state of the legislative regulation of equal pay for men and women and to provide possible de lege ferenda solutions. The thesis is divided into an introduction, two main chapters and a conclusion. The first chapter defines the basic theoretical concepts related to gender pay inequality and also introduces the reader to the Czech legal regulation of equality and non-discrimination as the basic building blocks of gender pay inequality. The second chapter is considered by the author to be crucial as it introduces one of the most important indicators of inequality in the labor market, identifies its key aspects and demonstrates the underlying causes of its emergence, as well as its impact on the individual...

Žabka, Jan ; Koldinská, Kristina (advisor) ; Tomšej, Jakub (referee)
Health insurance of foreigners in the Czech Republic Abstract The main topic of this master thesis is the issue of health insurance of foreigners in the Czech Republic. Its goal is not only an analysis of the current legal regulation of this insurance, but also proposals for its possible development in the future. The thesis is focused on foreigners primarily for the reason that, while Czech citizens' access to health insurance is relatively unproblematic, in the case of foreigners there are many complications and obstacles. In the first chapter, the author first deals with foreigners who participate in the public health insurance system. In this part, he mainly draws attention to the inappropriate legal regulation, which concerns the access of persons to public health insurance, as well as to the imperfect formulation of the conditions of application of one of the coordination regulations. In the second chapter, on the other hand, the author focuses on foreigners who do not participate in public health insurance and must therefore conclude commercial health insurance for foreigners. The chapter on commercial health insurance for foreigners is divided into two subsections. The first deals with basic health insurance for foreigners and the second with comprehensive health insurance for foreigners. The...
