The inclusion of constitutional rights within the ambit of the employment relationship raises new tensions between the enforcement of an employee’s right to gender equality, religious and cultural freedoms and an employer’s right to engage in free economic activity. The employer, in seeking to increase its productivity and efficiency, may insist on standards of uniformity in the manner in which employees dress to work. The employee, on the other hand, might find the insistence of these norms or uniformities in conflictwith his/her right to equality and/or religious or cultural freedoms. In this case, the courts were faced with the task of reconciling these tensions between the Department of Correctional Services and some of its employees. This note looks at the manner in which the Labour Court ([2010] 10 BLLR 1067; (2010) 31 ILJ 2433 (LC) and Labour Appeal Court dealt with the issue.

The article reviews the main differences between the monetary obligation of the employer under Art. 232, para. 2 of the Labour Code and other payments that the same party owes by law in the employment relationship. Thus, the hypotheses are differentiated, on the one hand, of the unilateral termination of the employment contract by the employer against monetary payment on the grounds of Art. 232, para. 2 of the Labour Code, and, on the other hand, the emergence of an obligation to pay certain compensations – in the true sense of the term – under Art. 213, Art. 214, Art. 219, para. 2 and Art. 225 of the Labour Code. Thereby, the thesis regarding the impossibility of incurring of an obligation on the employer to simultaneously execute the various mentioned monetary considerations, is reasoned. In addition, the rules set out in the law are discussed, both for contracting and for the final calculation of the amount of the employer’s monetary payment, which this study focuses on.

Temporary employment is based on a modified employment relationship. Its essence is to recognize the entity using the employee’s work as the employer user. This allows him to be relieved of some of the duties of the employer who takes over the temporary employment agency. This makes it easier for employers to hire an employee in the short term. This also creates additional jobs. On the other hand, this entails the development of a legal basis for such employment. There may also be doubts as to who is in charge of certain obligations of the employer.

This article aimed to analyze the stereotypes attributed to "egalitarian men", understood here as men who support gender equality in relation to domestic and family responsibilities as well as inclusion in the workforce. To do so, two studies were carried out. The first study investigated the attribution of stereotypes to egalitarian men through a single open question. A total of 250 university students participated in this study, of which 51.1% were male, and their average age was 21.5 years (SD = 4.39). The second study analyzed the attribution of stereotypes to egalitarian or traditional men and women in a work context considered masculine. Participants included 221 university students with a mean age of 21.9 years (SD = 4.19), the majority (54.3%) being male. Taken together, the results of the two studies indicate that the egalitarian man is perceived as fragile and possibly homosexual. On the other hand, he is also seen as being more competent than traditional men.

Exclusion of the application provisions of freedom of economic activity act in the scope of concession for operating casino games and the protection of the public interestThis article presents the comparison between provisions of freedom of economic activity act and the law on gambling in scope of conditions related to revoking concession for operating casino games. To revoke that concession, only provisions of law on gambling can be applied because of provisions of freedom of economic activity act are excluded in that cases. That regulation allows the raising of freedom economic activity, but the other hand — also causes the limitation in the protec­tion of public interest.

Brazil records alarming rates of epidemic violence against women and LGBTQ+. According to statistics, the country ranks as the fifth most violent for women and the deadliest in the world for homosexuals. On the other hand, progressive policies to support both groups have been implemented by different public administrations in the last decades generating remarkable milestones. Despite being considered as cutting-edge, those actions have not necessarily translated into a reduction of violence. One explanation for these paradoxes between progressive policies to protect women, LGBTQ+ and the frequent violence against these groups, might be found in historical, cultural, and religious roots. This article highlights that, notwithstanding that some progress was made in Brazil, the rise of conservative and far-right groups may undermine all the advancement reached in the last decades, which could lead to the aggravation of the gender-based violence in the country

The obligation to personally provide the creative work is inscribed in the nature and essence of creative work. The creative work is based on the individual characteristics and predispositions of the creator. The nature of creative work determines the obligation to provide it personally. On the other hand, the obligation to personally provide the creative work is a prerequisite for the existence of an employment relationship (i.e. labor relationship). Therefore, in case of creative work, there is a strengthening of the obligation to provide it personally because of the unique nature of performed, creative work. The personal character of creative work overlaps with the subject of the service as well as the entity of the service. The obligation to perform the work personally is not only the completion of the necessary elements of the labor relationship, but it guarantees also the performance of the employment duties by the competent employee according to the employer decision.

The Right

The aim of the article is to assess the admissibility of a medical staff strike from the perspective of the employees’, employers’, and social interest. The applicable labor law regulations do not give an unambiguous answer to the question whether medical workers have the right to strike, since striking is a special instrumentality for employees to protect their rights. On the one hand, the labor law does not literally deprive medical staff of the right to strike. On the other hand, there are numerous arguments supporting the notion that a strike of medical staff causes a threat to the health and life of patients who are deprived of medical care during a strike. Regulating the issue is therefore of significant importance, not only social, but also to the employment relationship parties.

The article discusses the functioning of organizations and the increasing social and economic significance of the results of activity of economic entities in the sphere of culture. In this case, the orientation of the management of cultural institutions is in the direction of higher levels of economic activity, utility and profitability. In this regard, there is the question about the effectiveness of the institutions of culture not only in economic but also in social sphere. The need for the implementation of the project “national centre of restoration of musical instruments” as a scientific-educational center is proved by the fact that the budgetary allocation for its creation and development will support the unique mission of the center for the broadcast world tradition of preserving material heritage of musical culture. On the other hand, it will contribute to a social result, which is expressed in the effectiveness of the protection events of the musical objects of cultural heritage. A separate issue is the preservation of cultural heritage, including tangible objects and music culture through a series of government support measures. However, in recent years, there is a tendency to stagnation in the share of expenditure on culture. The article presents the planned expenditures of the budgetary system, which is planned spending on culture be left at 0.5% of GDP. On the other hand, financing of applied scientific research in the field of culture has increased. This decision is connected with the growing social and economic significance of the results of activity of economic entities in the sphere of culture in the direction of higher levels of economic activity, utility and profitability. The feasibility of the implementation of the project “national centre of restoration of musical instruments” as a scientific-educational center is to broadcast the world’s traditions of preservation of material heritage of musical culture and assist in attracting private investment in projects and activities for restoration and examination of objects of musical culture.
