Right to Organise and Collective Bargaining Convention, 1949 (No. 98) - Czechia (Ratification: 1993)

The Committee notes the information provided by the Government in its report, including Act No. 155/2000 amending the Labour Code (Act No. 65/1965).

Article 1 of the Convention. The Government indicates that the Labour Code, as amended, now explicitly prohibits discrimination of workers based on, inter alia, membership and activity in trade union organizations, and that the relevant labour offices can impose penalties on employers who engage in such acts. The Committee requests the Government to provide in its next report information on the nature of these penalties and the forms of compensation provided for in the legislation to protect workers against such acts.
