Vývoj právní úpravy dohod o pracích konaných mimo pracovní poměr

Abstract

The article analyses the development of agreements on work performed outside employment relationship in the Czechoslovak and Czech legal system on the background of the contemporary context. Agreements on work performed outside employment relationship are a traditional institution of Czech and Slovak labour law, which is not found anywhere else in the world. The reason for their creation is related to the economic needs of Czechoslovakia in the socialist era. The article discusses the contemporary context of the creation of such agreements, their original legal regulation in the previous Labour Code (Act No. 65/1965 Sb.), important amendments and the reasons that led to them, and the legal regulation of agreements in the new Labour Code (Act No. 262/2006 Sb.). The knowledge gained from the study of agreements on work performed outside employment relationship is used to present de lege ferenda considerations.
