Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this monograph on the Czech Republic not only describes and analyses the legal aspects of labour relations, but also examines labour relations practices and developing trends. It provides a survey of the subject that is both usefully brief and sufficiently detailed to answer most questions likely to arise in any pertinent legal setting. Both individual and collective labour relations are covered in ample detail, with attention to such underlying and pervasive factors as employment contracts, suspension of the contracts, dismissal laws and covenant of non-competition, as well as international private law. The author describes all important details of the law governing hours and wages, benefits, intellectual property implications, trade union activity, employers’ associations, workers’ participation, collective bargaining, industrial disputes, and much more. Building on a clear overview of labour law and labour relations, the book offers practical guidance on which sound preliminary decisions may be based. It will find a ready readership among lawyers representing parties with interests in the Czech Republic, and academics and researchers will appreciate its value in the study of comparative trends in laws affecting labour and labour relations.

The protection of jobs and labour law standards achieved by employees in the past has been under pressure from neoliberalization forces for many years. The focused perspectives evident in this original collection of essays go a long way toward clearly de? ning where labour law and social security law must set their sights in order to preserve fair and productive employer-employee relations in the new world of work. Distinguished researchers study the changing realities confronting the labour market, in public policy as well as in industrial relations. Issues and topics include the following: – integration of immigrants into industrial relations; – the social situation of migrant workers; – new phenomena brought by the digital age; – temporary agency work; – harmonizing family and working lives; – sport and labour law; – the role of European Works Councils; and – social and labour reforms. Throughout this book, the contributors emphasize the changing role of the state and reform agendas. Although the central focus is on Europe, there is an abundance of comparative detail, allowing for global application. As a matchless, up-to-date overview and analysis of how new and emerging forms of employment and industrial relations impact employee security, this book will be warmly welcomed by practitioners, academics, and policymakers concerned with ensuring the persistence of fair and viable standards in labour and social security law.

This study is devoted to the evolution of labour law in the Czech Republic and Slovak Republic. Data from the two countries were concentrated into a single study for two main reasons: the countries have experienced a very similiar evolution of labour law in the past ten years and share a common history in the Czechoslovak state through almost the entire 20th century. As Czechoslovakia, the two countries also experienced a period of rule by the communist party. The impact this had on labour was the introduction of a very protective model of labour law, which became a distinct field of mixed public-private law, separate from civil law.

The European Union acquis communautaire were applied to all ten of the states seeking accession in 2004. Although universal in term, the acquis were applied in particular historical and institutional circumstances which resulted in observable variation in outcomes. This study compares how the EU guidelines for accession were instituted in the Czech and Slovak Republics after the fall of communism. It focuses on labor legislation and related statutes such as Civil Service Code. The study demonstrates that in complying with the EU acquis communautaire, there are both continuities and discontinues in each country's prior labor law. In addition, it reveals how specific processes and social conditions can lead to differential application of rule of law guidelines, even in the contexts of two states that formerly had constituted one.

Bercusson: European Labour Law, part of the lauded Law in Context series, explores the complex dynamic whereby 15 different national legal systems, in symbiosis with the institutions of the European Union, are producing a new supra-national law for Europe. UK membership of the EU brings with it the acknowledged supremacy of EC law. UK labour law faces the potentially explosive impact of EC labour law. Political parties, trade unions and employers are increasingly aware of the high stakes EU membership poses for the future of British labour law. European labour law has now come into its own. This complex distillation of national labour laws has become a transnational labour law system, original and distinct and genuinely European in character.

With the successful introduction in 2010 of the Czech Yearbook of International Law, Professor Alexander J. Bělohlávek and Professor Naděžda Rozehnalová, the editors, present the 2011 volume of this ambitious project. The second volume focuses on the admittedly controversial topics relating to a shift from the investors’ viewpoints on investment protection to the contrasting viewpoints of the host states, which are facing growing numbers of alleged claims by investors. Volume II has set as its objective to plot the shift in the paradigm towards a new balance between investors and host states in the investment protection system. Such a shift can be observed in the rising number of counterclaims brought by host states against investors, by the introduction of new standards for evaluation of investments in light of the good faith of the investor at the time of an investment, and by the choice of an absolute means of protection of a host state's interest against investor claims by termination of an existing investment treaty. These topics represent pieces of the whole mosaic of this problem, to which the second volume of the Czech Yearbook of International Law is dedicated to a wide professional audience. The Czech Yearbook of International Law (CYIL) is a collective effort by the following persons and institutions
