Czech Post rewards its employees according to the rules

In a ruling handed down on November 14, 2024, the District Court for Prague 1 decided that the state-owned enterprise did not violate the right to fair remuneration in relation to employee L.H. This is the first final ruling against the Equal Pay organization, which seeks to enforce the claims of a group of employees.

This ruling confirms the long-standing position of Česká pošta that it does not engage in unequal remuneration in its wage policy and that historical cases cannot be applied across the board to disputes currently in progress. A total of three judgments have already been delivered in the current group of disputes, two of which – one of them final – ruled in favor of Česká pošta.

Česká pošta is not aware of any unequal remuneration of its employees. It has always complied with the applicable legislation. The only positive aspect of the whole case of allegedly unequal wages is the fact that the current legal disputes could spark a debate on whether the legislation reflects the current conditions on the labor market.
