Atypical Forms of Employment
Machala, Jan ; Morávek, Jakub (referee)
The thesis deals with atypical forms of employment, from their definition, through legal regulation to their use in practice. Atypical employment is a highly topical issue in labour law. This is confirmed by the development in the European Union countries, where an increasingly clear shift from the typical employment relationship model to atypical forms of employment can be observed. Atypical employment can be a tool to promote higher employment rate, flexible adaptation to the requirements of the labour market and reconciliation of work and family life. The thesis consists of an introduction, three chapters systematically divided into subchapters, and a conclusion. The first chapter deals with the development of labour law in the Czech Republic. The second chapter deals with labour law in the sense of its concept, subject and position in the legal system. The core part of the thesis is its third chapter, which deals with selected atypical forms of employment regulated by the Czech legal system. It analyses agreements on work performed outside the employment relationship, temporary assignment, agency employment, temporary employment, part-time work, job sharing and performing work from home. After an assessment of atypical forms of employment, considerations are presented on the possibilities for...

Procházková, Šárka ; Morávek, Jakub (advisor) ; Lang, Roman (referee)
Thesis Title: Liability in Labour Law This diploma thesis deals with the issue of liability in labour law. The aim of the thesis is to evaluate the legal regulation of liability in selected areas in the light of current legal regulation as valid in Czech Republic. The thesis is divided into two key parts. The introduction chapters are devoted to the interpretation of generally used terms regarding the legal liability in labour law and also its specifications. This part of the thesis focuses also at the system of prevention, including responsibilities of employers and employees during its execution, and at basic functions of labour law with focal point on the protection function that pervades the whole system of labour law. The conclusion of this first half deals with the summary of current legal regulation of employer's and employee's liability in Czech labour law. The detailed analysis of selected topics, in the view of labour law, is presented in the second part of the thesis. These include remote work, home office and job sharing. In case of remote work and home office we speak about flexible forms of work performance. Despite the popularity and rich use of these abovementioned forms, they are almost omitted by the legislator. Legal regulation is to be found only in one single paragraph of...

Work Life Balance in Czech and European Union law
Jankovcová, Kristýna ; Vysokajová, Margerita (advisor) ; Štefko, Martin (referee)
Work Life Balance in Czech and European Union law Abstract Work-life balance is an important political and legal instrument with a significant impact on the employment rate, birth rate, work productivity and other key indicators. This thesis deals with the concept of work-life balance in the legal framework of the Czech Republic as well as the European Union, focusing on workers with care responsibilities. The aim of the thesis is to analyze legal instruments in favour of work-life balance, identify their shortcomings, consider possible ways of overcoming such limitations and assess the EU legal framework's impact on the national legal framework. Work-life balance is closely linked to the concept of equal treatment between women and men. For this reason, the thesis focuses on legal instruments that are gender-neutral or that can contribute to overcoming the traditional perception of women as primary carers. The examined legal instruments were also selected based on their relevance in terms of ongoing discussions on both national and EU level. The first part of the thesis should facilitate the reader's understanding of the EU work-life balance legal framework by exploring the origin and development of the concept, legislative and non-legislative instruments and case law of the Court of Justice of the EU. The...

Všetečková, Tereza ; Štangová, Věra (advisor) ; Vysokajová, Margerita (referee)
Harmonization of the professional and personal lives of employees Abstract The content of this thesis is the harmonization of professional and family life from a legal perspective. Especially with regard to the family life of the individual. This is a topic that both women and men related to. This is a current issue, as it resonates with the whole society and influences its development and growth. Appropriate balance of these two areas can lead to a happier life of the individual, higher work performance and an increase in birth rates. The aim was to comprehensively and structurally compile the area of harmonization of professional and personal life, to point out possible problems or discrepancies in legislation in this area. This is done by describing the legal regulation of individual institutes and by providing proposals de lege ferenda. I proceeded from the basic hypothesis that this is an area where gender inequality is still visible and that the process of development in this area is still not complete. The work is divided into five chapters. The first chapter deals with the basic legal regulations governing the harmonization of personal and professional life from an international and national perspective. The second chapter is devoted to the basic institutes of this area, their definition, their pros...

Atypical forms of employment
Marek, Jan ; Hůrka, Petr (advisor) ; Tomšej, Jakub (referee)
The modern globalized world is developing rapidly thanks to communication technologies. This trend brought about the need for new and atypical jobs and flexible forms of work. National legislations are responsible for allowing such flexibility. These new forms of work as well as atypical jobs make it possible to better reconcile personal and working life and lead to increased labour productivity, which is in the interest of both employees and employers. This is closely related to the concept of flexicurity, which represents the effort to strike balance between the flexibility of labour law relations and the protective function of labour law. This balance is the legislator's goal. However, said goal is challenging to achieve, given the opposite interests of employees and employers. This thesis is divided into four main chapters and subsequent subchapters. The introduction is focused on a general introduction to the topic and objectives of this proposal. The first chapter summarizes the concept of flexicurity and European and Czech efforts to achieve it. Then it proceeds to the description of its implementation in Denmark with advantages and disadvantages of the possible use of this model in the Czech Republic. The second chapter focuses on the definition of the key terms: atypical form of...

Also, the paper will evaluate the impact of this legislative framework and legal institutes on work and family life and recommend alterations "de lege ferenda".

Atypical forms of employment
Kaše, Miloslav ; Štangová, Věra (advisor) ; Štefko, Martin (referee)
Mgr. Ing. Miloslav Kaše, CSc., Atypical forms of employment, Rigorous thesis, Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Law, Department of Labor Law and Social Security Law, Prague, 2017. Number of pages 134. The topics of rigorous thesis are some selected atypical forms of employment and flexible working arrangements that the Czech labor law not yet fully knows and uses. The chosen theme is based on current trends in labor law highlighting flexicurity as a mutual individual employment relationship between employer and employee, which through atypical forms of employment and flexible working arrangements allows the freedom and flexibility for the employer and the guarantee and protection by minimum labor standards on the part of the employee. This paper also briefly compares atypical forms of employment and flexible working arrangement with Slovak labor legislation. This paper describes and evaluates selected atypical forms of employment and flexible working arrangements - homeworking, job sharing, interim management, on call work, labor pooling and voucher system - both from the perspective of employers, who often promote greater freedom and flexibility of labor legislation and from the perspective of employees who are more interested in the introduction of atypical forms of employment and flexible...
