On 30 July 2020, a comprehensive amendment of the Czech Labor Code entered into force, implementing experiences with the Code's application over recent years. Thus, inter alia, a new concept of paid leave is introduced (the leave being calculated per hours), job sharing is enabled, and employees are allowed to take extra leave for organizing summer camps and other like children events, having the right to one-weekly-wage compensation (which will be subsequently reimbursed from the public purse to the employer).
