Employment law with AI that cites the Labour Code

HR professionals need answers quickly and correctly: when notice can be given, what the notice period is, how much severance pay amounts to. AI with the Europaius connector answers directly from the Labour Code and Supreme Court case law, and backs up every answer with a citation.

The most common questions AI can handle

  • Grounds for dismissal under Section 52 of the Labour Code and the formal requirements for notice of termination, including case law on the vagueness of grounds.
  • Immediate termination of employment: time limits under Section 58 and what courts consider a particularly serious breach.
  • Severance pay under Section 67: multiples, when it is due and when it is not.
  • Probationary periods, fixed-term contracts and their renewal, non-compete clauses.
  • Working hours, overtime, annual leave and its reduction, remote work.
  • Equal treatment and discrimination, including case law.

How to ask

Describe the situation anonymously and factually: “An employee on an indefinite-term contract, three years with the company, repeated late arrivals, two written warnings over the past six months. Can notice be given under Section 52(g)? What conditions must be met, and how does the Supreme Court assess this?” The AI will look up the relevant provision, find decisions on systematic minor breaches, and summarise the conditions, including the warning deadline.

Always ask for a reference to the specific section and to the relevant decision. Without the connector, the AI will infer the conditions; with the connector, it copies them directly from the law.

The case law that decides the outcome

In dismissal cases, court practice matters more than the wording of the law itself. The Supreme Court repeatedly interprets what constitutes “systematic” breach, how specific the ground for dismissal must be, or when redundancy is not genuine. The connector searches over 160,000 Supreme Court decisions with full text, so the AI can find even decisions without a formal legal headnote, where the relevant passage lies within the reasoning. The research process is described in the guide Case Law Research with AI.

Branches abroad

Companies with employees in Slovakia, Poland or Germany deal with the same question across several legal systems. The comparison tool returns the relevant provisions of each country side by side. The result is an overview of the differences with citations, which the HR professional can send to a local lawyer for confirmation.

Limits

AI cannot assess the evidentiary situation or how a particular court will view a particular employee. For dismissals and immediate terminations, consultation with a lawyer is always advisable; AI with the connector prepares the groundwork so the lawyer receives a ready-made overview of the law and case law and only needs to handle the assessment.

Frequently Asked Questions

3
Can I upload an employee's employment contract into the AI?

Only in anonymised form, and only under an AI plan that does not use data for training. The contract itself never reaches the Europaius connector — only the legal query does.

Does the AI also know collective agreements and internal regulations?

No, those are not publicly available. Upload them into the AI as a document and have them compared against the law retrieved from the connector.

Does the corpus include decisions of regional courts in employment disputes?

Optionally, yes, via justice.cz. This can be enabled in the query (“including justice.cz”), though the search will be slower.
