Beneš, Josef ; Morávek, Jakub (advisor) ; Lang, Roman (referee)
Approximately every tenth citizen in the Czech Republic suffers from a disability.

Therefore, it is important that legislation protects the disabled persons and encourages employers to their employment. Employing of disabled people is in the interest of entire society and also has an integrative dimension. The main objective of this thesis is to assess comprehensively the legal regulation of the employment of persons with disabilities in the Czech Republic, to reflect recent amendments to applicable legislation and simultaneously to verify the premise that these regulations are satisfactory and feasible in practice. The thesis consists of four parts. The first part focuses on the basic definitions and states in which aspects some similar terms are identical or different. Special attention is paid to the definition of a "disabled person" in all its major forms.

Aldorf, Lukáš ; Pichrt, Jan (referee) ; Štefko, Martin (referee)
of the rigorosum thesis "Equal Treatment and Discrimination in Labor-Law Relationships" The aim of this thesis is to ascertain how effective the anti-discrimination law in labor-law relationships on the level of international, EU, and Czech national law is. Next, if needed and based on the findings also to propose effective and just changes of law or an adoption of extralegal measures. The structure of the thesis corresponds to its aims. In the first chapter, basic terms used in the anti- discrimination law area are defined. In the second chapter, I introduce the (for me) most compelling conception of moral justification of the prohibition of discrimination in any normative system. The third chapter describes, analyzes and partly also criticizes the valid law on the above mentioned three levels of law (international, EU, Czech). In the fourth chapter, I mention methods by the use of which one can estimate the extent of discrimination in certain area. The fifth chapter enumerates typical causes of or motivation behind discriminatory treatment, which are in particular prejudice and conformity.

Last but not least, I stress the importance of education of all...

6 Title of the Thesis: Equal Treatment and Discrimination in Labor-Law Relationships Summary of the Thesis: The aim of this thesis is to ascertain the level of effectiveness of anti-discrimination law in labor-law relationships on the level of international, EU, and Czech national law. Next, if needed and based on the findings to propose effective and just changes of law or an adoption of extralegal measures. The structure of the thesis corresponds to its aims. In the first chapter, basic terms used in the anti-discrimination law area are defined. In the second chapter, I introduce the (for me) most compelling conception of moral justification of the prohibition of discrimination in any normative system. The thesis includes this chapter because an express elaboration of such a conception is a necessary starting point for the formulation of a just solution to discrimination. The third chapter describes, analyzes and partly also criticizes the valid law on the above mentioned three levels of law (international, EU, Czech). In the fourth chapter, I mention methods by the use of which one can estimate the extent of discrimination in certain area. I reach a conclusion that the extent of discrimination is significant, in particular with respect to the discrimination of older people (over 50 or 55 years old),...
