APVV-16-0002 Mental Helath in the Workplace and Employee Health Assessment, 01.07. 2017 - 30.06. 2021, principal investigator


In the view of unstoppable process of aging workforce is sustainability of health capacity to perform the work up - to - date subject. Project deals with the selected aspects of OHS which is very close to the issue of health (dis)ability of employee. The cardinal purpose is to protect employee against the adverse effects and an effort to sustain employee disposed to perform agreed work.

VEGA č. 1/0526/17 Linguistic and Sanction Mechanism Related To Law Making And Impact of Labour Law, 01/2017 - 12/2019, principal investigator


The project is focused on the study of linguistic instruments in the law making of labor law norms with onward analysis of sanction mechanism variations. Using of law in individual cases assumes the knowledge of legal terminology and understanding the content of legal norms. Normative modalities non permissible by law are penalized by sanctions, which it is necessary to identify in the structure of legal norm, by the studying the linguistic expression of their content. The purpose of project is to interpret legal norms by using the linguistic method, to identify applicable sanctions and to find appropriate legislative solutions for the explicitness and stability terms in labour law area. The intended purpose is to offer an approbated interpretation of linguistic terms, notions and definitions of labour law, which are usable in the application sphere of legal relations regulated by norms of labour law. Realization of outlined goals consist in assecuration of higher certainty of users of legal text.

VVGS-2016-311 Effects of The Regulation of Protection of Personal Data in the workplace (PCOV), 03/2017 – 02/2018, principal investigator


The sphere of privacy of the employees and related obligations of the employers is one of the most dynamically developing areas of law. It is because of the fact that the law seeks to respond to the development of technologies that allow employee monitoring and data collection, and (traditionally) stays behind that development. This trend of informatization of data collection coupled with an increasing interference to the private sector of employees (and sometimes even the customers) receive an ambitious effort at European Union level (the adoption of The Regulation of Protection of Personal Data) and will set up basic standards and constraints that will have to respect each and every Member State . These standards are administered in legal norms in typical specific legal language, often incomprehensible for ordinary employer, and because the rules of the protection of personal data is now operating in synergy of the Labour Code, the Civil Code as well as the Act on Protection of Personal Data (after the efficiency it will be the new Regulation on the Protection of Personal Data and new Act on Protection of Personal Data) this lack of transparency does not help. That is why we see such high demand for preparation of legal analysis, in which will be processed the catalog of rights and obligations of the employer in regard to changing legislation, as well as the catalog of employee obligations and rights (as it introduces many new institutes that support the personality protection - e.g. the right to be forgotten). Since monitoring of the employees has a very thin and often unclear boundaries (often defined solely by the purpose of data collection), at the same time we will try to prepare in the legal analysis a solutions for a number of practical situations that employers face on a daily basis.
