abstract
In the introductory part of his contribution, the author deals with a special nature of the Czech Labour Law as a separate branch of law, its component parts, and its relation to European Law. In the forthcoming codification of the Czech private law, the Labour Code should preserve its nature of a separate code – interconnected, however, with the Civil Code. General issues, especially those relating to legal facts, representation, securing obligations, calculation of time etc. should be uniformly regulated, allowing for the application of the principal of subsidiarity with respect to the Civil Code. The author is of the opinion that in other issues, the principal of delegation should apply, i.e. the Civil Code provisions would only be used if the Labour Code stipulated so expressly. In the conclusion, the author gives his idea of the scope of the Labour Code and the specific contents of its individual parts in terms of individual as well as collective labour law. After the adoption of the new Labour Code, there should still be a separate regulation, namely in the areas of employment rate and protection of employees in case of employer’s insolvency.
