Summary/Abstract: Presented paper contains comments and analysis related to the position of the Member of Parliament (Deputy, Senator) as an employee from the point of view of the employer’s interest. The Deputies who exercise the mandate and remain in labour relations with their previous employer could be divided into two categories: those who have got the unpaid leave (granted on employee’s request) and those who are actively performing their employee’s being entitled to a leave of absence for the entire working day or any part thereof, as required to perform duties connected with mandate. It is connected with the assessment of duties, which encumbered the person employing employee who have held the Deputy’s mandate (Senator’s mandate). Doubts that arise in relation to these charges also update the questions about the legal status of the Parliament’s Member (professional or nonprofessional). The study also presents the viewpoint at the position of the Member of Parliament as a representative of the public interest when this status is linked to the status of the employee. It implies the question of the boundaries of acceptable conjunction of the above mentioned status with the employee’s duties and responsibilities.
