Main Article Content
Abstract
The paper focuses on the Amendment of the Labour Code implemented through Act N. 120/2025 Sb., which became effective on 1 June 2025. The main objective of the Amendment is to increase the level of flexibility within employment relations and modernisation of the labour market as well as to create a more favourable environment for balancing work and personal life of parents of young children. That is why the Amendment has often been designated as the Flexi Amendment. More extensive flexibility has not only been a requirement to be followed within modern European employment regulation, but also serves as a key component of the global trends in labour law. The Amendment is based on experience acquired in the course of application of the Labour Code and relating legislation, and also on the relevant case law of the Supreme Court of the Czech Republic and of the European Court of Justice. The drafting of the Amendment was carefully observed by both professional and lay public.
