Summary/Abstract: Act No. 435/2004 Coll., on employment establishes obligations to be respected by physical persons, legal entities, entrepreneurs, employers and health service providers. In the event of a breach of these obligations, a penalty is imposed consisting of a fine. Sections 139 and 140 of the cited legislation regulate the factual substance of such offences and, at the same time, determine the amount of fines that can be imposed in cases of violation. Offences committed under the Employment Act are addressed by the State Labour Inspection Authority or regional labour inspectorates. The Employment Act specifies particularly for employers and entrepreneurs a range of obligations, a comprehensive knowledge of which contributes significantly to the prevention of violation. Therefore, the aim of this article is to help to improve the orientation of employers and entrepreneurs in this field.
