Changes related to the amendment to the Labour Code
7. 11. 2023
In October 2023, a rather substantial amendment to the Labour Code No. 281/2023 Coll. came into force. It contains changes to the legal regulation of agreements on work performed besides the employment relationship, the so-called agreements to complete a job and agreements to perform work.
In the case of agreements on work besides the employment relationship, there is a new obligation to schedule work shifts in advance, to observe continuous rest periods and to provide additional payments for weekend work. The information obligation of the employer concluding the employment contract has been extended. In the new contracts, the employee must be informed in considerable detail about the content of the employment relationship, i.e. the relationship based on the agreement on work besides the employment relationship.
The amendment also introduced new rules for remote work (home office) as of 1 October 2023.
