abstract
The European Communities (EC) established in the 50th of20th century did not concern (at least at the beginning) with the labour law at all. Their primary aim was to create and to develop functioning common market. Nevertheless along with the establishment of common market, with the realization of the one of the “basic freedoms” – namely free movement of workers - it turned out that economic, social and labour processes are not separate. It shows that there has to be some regulation of minima! social standards and minimal labour law regulation within the European Communities. Even nowadays the labour law of EC (if we could name it so), arises from the principle of entrusted powers and from the principle of territoriality. It means the regulation of labour law pertains to member state, on the basis of article 5 of European Community Treaty. And the employment relationship is governed by the national law (exactly by the positive law of the member state where the rights and obligations from the employment contract are performed). The purpose of presented paper is to evaluate the authentic Czech legal regulation of termination of employment contract pursuant to the legal acts of parties to an employment contract (especially with regard to the regulation of the new Labour Code no. 262/2006 Coll.) and to compare it through the prism of the primary and the secondary EC law. In the text there are described (defined and characterized) specific juridical institutes of the Czech labour law such as termination of an employment contract by an agreement, by a notice, by a summary dismissal and by a summary dismissal during the trial (probationary) period, of course utilizing the practice of the Czech labour courts (tribunals). Proper attention is given to the relevant EC directives dealing with the termination of the employment relationship and to the practice of the European Court of Justice in this area.
