Abstract

The authors look into a current topic

– history and present of the legal implementation of the right to strike in the Czech Republic. They introduce pieces of legislation that to some extent governed this right in the past and continue to govern it today. An important law, which established the right to strike during the Austrian-Hungarian period was the coalition act from 1870. This act was received in the Czechoslovak legal system by receiving standard No. 11/1918 Col. The article then chronologically introduces other pieces of legislation up until the present, when the fundamental document for the right to strike is the Charter of Fundamental Rights and Freedoms and the Act No. 2/1991 Col. on collective bargaining. However, a law governing strikes outside of collective bargaining is still missing. This should be fixed.
