It is a legal requirement to provide your employees in the Czech Republic with a formal contract of employment, including all relevant details of the employment agreement such as salary/wage, parental leave allowance, sick pay, working hours, and so on. It should also be written in Czech and use the Czech koruna currency.
By partnering with our Czech Republic EOR, Horizons’ team of local experts can provide assistance for drafting strong employment contracts that are compliant with local regulations.
Normal working hours in the Czech Republic are 40 hours per week. Czechs have a tendency to start work earlier than most cultures, with 7am start being common. However, this is not legally required, and many foreign-owned organizations do not enforce it.
Work beyond 40 hours per week needs to be compensated at overtime rates, which are at least 125% of normal pay.

Employees and employers must provide a minimum of two months of notice when terminating an employment contract. This does not apply in probation periods, which can last for up to three months.
Severance pay may be required if an employee is terminated without proper cause. For employees who have been with a company for under one year, severance of one month of salary must be paid. For employees of between one and two years, severance rises to two months of salary. For employees of more than two years, the minimum payment is three months of salary.
Navigating employee terminations and handling severance packages can be complicated for companies expanding overseas for the first time. Horizons’ Czech Republic EOR can mitigate risk for foreign companies and provide guidance through this process.
Employers in the Czech Republic are required to pay 25% of employee salaries to social security schemes, with a cap on maximum payments.
