Specifika pracovněprávních vztahů v mezinárodní kamionové dopravě

This bachelor's thesis analyzes the specifics of labor law relations in the sector of international truck transport, with a particular focus on conditions in the Czech Republic and Germany. The aim of the thesis is to identify key factors influencing the working conditions of drivers, such as working hours, remuneration, social and psychological aspects of work performance, and legal certainty in a cross-border context. The research employs a comparative analysis of national legal frameworks, emphasizing the application of European law and significant legislative instruments, such as Regulation (EC) No. 561/2006, the Mobility Package, and the AETR Agreement. The findings reveal that, despite partial harmonization of European rules, substantial differences in the labor law status of drivers persist, particularly in wage structures, entitlement to paid leave, and the institutional enforcement of working conditions. The thesis also highlights major challenges, including non-compliance with labor standards in practice, legal uncertainty during cross-border employment, and the limited protection provided by trade unions. The study concludes with recommendations aimed at strengthening employees’ legal protection and improving the enforcement of labor law in the field of international transport.
