Abstract
To start with, Czech collective employment law remains to be quite far from the Western tradition and there are three main reasons for this. Firstly, thanks to the Communist regime, trade unions lost credit.
Secondly, legal practitioners, educated in different legal cultures, slowly regained skills in creative and democratic collective bargaining. Thirdly, socialism used the legislatures to regulate working-condition-making in favour of employees in statutes and the density of statutory regulations is high.
This article maps a specific figure of Czech Labour Law: Locals and their approach towards legal duty to let register their scope of legal actions in the public register.
