abstract
In this article, following the author’s foregoing study on adoption of the new legislation on labour courts (Law No. 131/1931 Coll. ), he gives interpretation of its essential provisions. He also pays attention to the preparatory work on the secondary (implementing) legislation, its adoption and content (legislation concerning the establishment of the labour courts, its activation, the process of choosing the lay judges and their reimbursement). The provisions on reconciliation proceeding are also mentioned, which were not finally applied in practice, as well as courts’ rules of order and particular problems that occured in the functioning of the labour courts. The author also briefly analyses the amendments to the new legislation and the end of the labour courts. Functioning of the courts resolving labour law disputes was not trouble-free, yet the positives prevailed. This was mainly thanks to the enlarged jurisdiction of the labour courts (as compared to that of the trade courts) as well as keeping the proceeding fast and economical.
