Protection of Employees in the Event of the Insolvency of their Employer from the Perspective of the EU Law
Seidl, Petr ; Štefko, Martin (advisor) ; Morávek, Jakub (referee)
The objective of this thesis, entitled "Protection of Employees in the Event of the Insolvency of their Employer from the Perspective of the EU Law" is to analyse European legislation in the field of protection of workers with regard to selected aspects and specifics of Czech national regulations. One of the main reasons for the adoption of national Act No. 118/2000 Coll. was the transposition of the Directive 2008/94/EC, which represents European legislation in this area. While protection of employees in the event of the insolvency of their employer was adopted at the community level in the early eighties, in the Czech Republic, the Act No. 118/2000 Coll. entered into force on the 1st July 2000. The thesis also deals with the broader context of the EU law, case law of the Court of Justice of the European Union, and selected legislation on the field of protection of employees in the event of the insolvency of their employer in certain Member States of the EU. The aim of this thesis also lies in description of not only the European legal framework, but also in an analysis of the area of protection of employees in the of employer's insolvency, which may have not been adequately transposed at all or has been transposed too widely. The typical case is, in my opinion, section 2, paragraph 5 of the Act...

Havlík, Jakub ; Hůrka, Petr (advisor) ; Matějka Řehořová, Lucie (referee)
Transfer of Undertakings Abstract This thesis elaborates on the transfer of undertakings safeguarding employees, rooted in the European legislation in the Council Directive 77/187/EEC of 19 February 1977, replaced by the Council Directive 2001/23/EC of 12 March 2001 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the safeguarding of employees' rights in the event of transfers of undertakings, businesses or parts of undertakings or businesses. Firstly, the European legislation on the transfer of undertakings is briefly analyzed, including its historical transposition into the Czech legal system and an analysis of its interpretation in the case-law of the Court of Justice of the European Union. The analysis of this legislation focuses in particular on the general nature of this institute of transfer of undertakings and on its basic pillars, such as the automaticity of the transfer, the economic unit preserving its identity, the preservation of working conditions and others. The next part of the thesis analyses the Czech regulation anchored in Act No. 262/2006 Coll., the Labour Code, as amended until 29 July 2020, which is gradually compared with the regulation at the European level, highlighting the fundamental differences caused by the somewhat loose transposition of the European regulation...

Health risks related to occupational exposure to asbestos
KLIMKOVÁ, Lenka
In our republic, occupational exposure to asbestos has been restricted to jobs concerned with disposal of products, materials and buildings containing asbestos, and research work studying asbestos fibres. The reason consists in health risks as all kinds of asbestos belong to high-risk carcinogens. The asbestos fibre related diseases should be reported. All data connected are kept in the National Institute of Public Health (NIPH) in Prague. The purpose of this study was to find out how much people are aware of the risks related to asbestos and find people who suffered from asbestos dust-induced disease, i.e. mesothelioma of pleura. The quantitative method was used to summarise information on asbestos-induced disease occurence in 1970-2010 available in the National Institute of Public Health in Prague. Along with that, the work maps the population awareness of asbestos risks. The thesis itself can be divided into two parts. The first one contains information based on data collection while the other part deals with data of NIPH in Prague. Two hypotheses were predicted: Hypothesis H1: People are aware of the material containing asbestos. Hypothesis H2: People are aware of negative impact of asbestos on human health. Both hypotheses were proved. Three hypotheses were suggested in the other part: Hypothesis H3: Latency, the time between first exposure to manifestation of disease, is never less than 20 years. Hypothesis H4: Incidence of mesothelioma of pleura and peritoneum is higher in people aged 60-69. Hypothesis H5: Smoking affects the course of the disease negatively. Hypotheses H3 and H4 were proved. Hypothesis H5 cannot be neither proved or disproved. Although the number of smokers among mesothelioma patients was higher, there is no evidence of negative effect of smoking on the disease. To prove this hypothesis, the data colllection should be larger. Findings of the study proved the time of exposure to asbestos fibres does not affect the occurence of this disease. The findings can be used in further research studies.
