Th e Czech Republic, as an independent state, was established on January 1, 1993 by

a split of the former Czech and Slovak Federal Republic. With an area of 78 866 sq. km,

population of 10.4 mil. and population density of 132 inhabitants per sq. km, it could

be classed as a small Central European state.

Th e area of the state was administratively structured into 76 territorial entities

(NUTS4 – districts), each with approximately 120 thousand inhabitants on average, plus

the capital Prague (NUTS3 and NUTS4 as the same time), with 1.212 mil. inhabitants

and 22 basic local authorities of municipal districts. District authorities were abolished

in 2003. Th eir functions were mainly dislocated to municipal and regional offi ces.

Labour Offi ces have performed on the district level (similarly in the City of Prague).

Social security is administered by the Czech Social Security Administration and its

offi ces. Self-government exists on the level of individual municipalities; there are

approximately 6 200 of them. Th e change on January 1, 2000, led to the creation of 14

new regions (NUTS3) as higher self-government units. Th ey are gradually involved in

some functions, earlier provided at the level of District Offi ces or within the authority

of ministries.

During the transformation period aft er 1989, it was necessary to establish new

institutions in the area of state administration, law, economy and social system, which

would guarantee both social and political changes and development of the market

economy in the Czech Republic. Th ese changes were accompanied by the adoption of

hundreds of new laws or their amendments. An important aspect of their approximation

to the legal standard of EU was taken into account.

Th e economic and social tranformation had an impact on several demographic

characteristics of the population. Th e most signifi cant aspects are postponement of

a family establishment and birth of children later. Th e birth rate has dropped constantly.

Since 1993 the natural population increment has turned into a decrement. In 2006 the

population development was in the sign of the superior numbers of live born children

above dead people that was noticed at the fi rst time aft er thirteen years. Th e fertility has

increased in association with lower number of departed led to positive value of natural

growth. In 2007 the natural increase was not so signifi cant (10 thousand persons). Th e

population increase was fi rstly caused by number of legal immigrants (83.9 thousand

persons). Total number of inhabitants in the Czech Republic has continuously increased

for fi ve years, but it was especially caused by immigration of foreigners until 2005. In

2007 the growth of population in the amount 93.9 thousand persons was the highest

growth in the history from the fi ft ieth in the last century in the Czech Republic. Number

of inhabitants of the Czech Republic made up 10,381 thousand persons as of December

31, 2007.

Th e registered unemployment rate was 7.7% at the end of year 2007, which is less

by 1.2% than at the end of previous year. However another decline of unemployment

remains one of the main social tasks.

1. Introduction


Ministry of Labour and Social Aff airs of the Czech Republic (MoLSA) was

established in 1990 by the ČNR Act No. 203/1990 Coll. It is responsible for labour-

law relations, occupational safety, employment and retraining, collective bargaining,

wages and other remuneration for work, pension welfare, sickness insurance, social

assistance, work conditions for the youth and women, maternity law protection,

children and family welfare, care of citizens that need special help and for other

wage and social issues. MoLSA manages the following subordinate state bodies:

Czech Social Security Administration, labour offi ces, four special social care

establishments, Offi ce for International Legal Protection of Children and State

Labour Inspection Offi ce. MoLSA is a founder of these allowance organisations:

Institute for Occupational Safety Education, Institute of Technical Inspection and

social care establishment for the handicapped in Hrabyně. According to the Act

No. 341/2005 Coll., on Public Research Institutions as amended, MoLSA founds

Research Institute for Labour and Social Aff airs and Occupational Safety Research

Institute.

Th e mai part of MoLSA authority is management of social welfare system that

includes basic compulsory pension insurance and sickness insurance. Besides the

premium on social welfare the contribution towards state employment policy is

also collected. Th e system is fi nanced by a continuous manner.

Czech pension system (see the Chapter no. 3 of this brochure) consists of

two parts: basic compulsory pension insurance that is universal and secures all

economically active persons. Th e various groups of participants are all subject to

the same legislation except specifi c administrative and organisational divergences

in departments of the armed forces. Regulation of basic pension insurance is

stipulated by the Act No. 155/1995 Coll., Pension Insurance Act as amended.

Beside this system there is voluntary supplementary pension insurance with state

contribution considered according to EU terminology as the third pension pillar.

Th is system is regulated by Ministry of Finance. Concerning the development of

the pension area in 2007 the annual pension valorizing was secured as well as the

following amendments of legislation: adjustment of “excluded periods” evaluation

for calculation of personal assessment base, setting of manner of child care evidence

and measures result from acceptance of act on stabilization of public budgets. At

the same time the draft s of legislative revisions in connection with the I. phase of

pension reform were being prepared (gradual prolongation of necessary insurance

period for entitlement to old-age pension to 35 years, increase of retirement age to

65 years both for men and women, unifi cation of age level for permanent entitlement

to widow and widower pension, revaluation of disability defi nition, unifi cation of

age level as a basis for added-in period calculation to asses total insurance period

both for men and women when receiving disability pension including reduction

of added-in period, cancellation of period of studies as substitute insurance

period, reduction of substitute insurance periods and percentual increase of old-

age assessment during gainful activity and partial receiving of this type of pension

benefi t).

Sickness insurance (see the Chapter 4) fi nancially secures economically active

persons when loosing their short-term earnings for reasons of sickness or maternity.

Implication in system of sickness insurance is compulsory and given by law. Th e self-

employed can participate on voluntary basis. Th e following benefi ts are provided

under the system of sickness insurance of employees: sickness benefi t, family

member care benefi t, maternity benefi t, pregnancy and maternity compensation

benefi t. Th e self-employed are entitled to sickness benefi t and maternity benefi t

only. In 2007 the area of sickness insurance was infl uenced by postponement of

effi ciency of new enactment No. 187/2006 Coll., Sickness Insurance Act. Th e Act

regulates the system globally. It covers both employees and members of armed

forces as well as self-employed persons.

Th e system of State Social Support is regulated by the Act No. 117/1995 Coll., on

State Social Support. It includes state social benefi ts to partly reimburse expenses

on maintenance and other basic personal needs of children and families in specifi c

social situations. Th e applications for the benefi ts within the system are handled by

relevant labour offi ce according to place of permanent stay of a person. Entitlement

to payment of a benefi t becomes extinct by lapse of 3-month period (or 1 year

for the lump sum benefi ts) as from a day when a benefi t have appertained. In

2007 there were the following means-tested benefi ts: child allowance, allowance

for school aids, social allowance and housing allowance. Th ese benefi ts were not

means-tested: parental allowance, foster care benefi ts, birth grant and death grant.

Impact of the Act No. 110/2006 Coll., on Minimum Living Standard and Subsistence

Level as amended, brought essential changes to the system. Th e living minimum

is conceived as one-component (costs on housing are not included). More news

about the system are mentioned in Chapter 5).

Th e Act 108/2006 Coll., Social Services Act as amended, came into effi ciency

on January 1, 2007. It signifi cantly changes system of social services. A person

who is dependent on other’s person assistance is entitled to care allowance (see

Chapter 6). Such person can ensure needed assistance according to own discretion.

In consequence of care allowance introduction the closely related or other person

care allowance, the pension increase for incapacity and a part of social care benefi ts

were cancelled. Th e care allowance is provided to persons dependent on another

physical person’s assistance for the purposes of arranging for necessary assistance.

Th e allowance is paid by a municipal authority of a municipality with extended

powers that is relevant for making decision on the allowance. Th e Act on social

services sets types of social services (see Chapter 7) and settlement of costs for

provision of social services, social services funding, obligations of providers. Social

11



services may be provided only on the basis of an authorization for social services

provision; such authorization shall arise upon the decision on registration. Control

on providers of social services is carried out within inspection of social services.

When carrying out an inspection, social services quality is checked according to

social services quality standards. Th e Act regulates also performance prerequisites

for the profession of a social worker.

Another important legislation in the social area is the Act No. 111/2006 Coll.,

on Assistance in Material Need as amended. Th is Act regulates assistance in cases

when a person or a family do not dispose by suffi cient income and their social

situation and property relations do not allow to satisfy basic necessaries of live on

level acceptable by society. At the same time, these persons are objectively unable

to increase their income (through one’s own work, through the due application of

entitlement and claims or through the sale or other disposal of one’s own assets),

thereby improving their situation through their own actions. Benefi ts of assistance

in material need are: allowance for living, supplement for housing and extraordinary

immediate assistance. Th ese benefi ts are provided cash; allowance for living can be

provided in form of wares dockets or luncheon voucher, supplement for housing

as direct rent or housing costs reimbursement as well, extraordinary immediate

assistance can be provided as direct costs on social services reimbursement.

Delegated municipal authorities are responsible for granting and disbursing of

benefi ts in material need.

On October 1, 2004, Act No. 435/2004 Coll., on Employment as amended,

came into force. Th is basic legal rule stipulates procedures for achievement of

state employment policy objectives. It also constitutes that MoLSA provides

methodological guidance for labour offi ces, monitors labour market situation,

proposes provisions to government to infl uence labour demand and supply, founds

retraining centres, grants and revokes license to employment mediation, supports

establishments of socially benefi cial jobs and publicly benefi cial work. Since July 1,

2000 the law provides (as a part of employment policy and the law, Act No. 188/2000

Coll.) the payments of employees´ wages claims, whose employer is not able to fi ll

these claims in consequence of his insolvency. Th e Ministry of Labour and Social

Aff airs implements employment policy through local labour offi ces subordinated to

the Employment Services Administration at the MoLSA. Administrative region of

individual labour offi ce is identical to territorial area of district. Th e capital Prague

has its own Labour Offi ce. Basic principle of current state employment policy is the

revised Lisbon strategy of EU, i.e. “Strategy for Growth and Employment”. Th e basic

tasks of state employment policy for 2007 were stipulated by MoLSA on the basis

of labour market analyses, state budget fi nancial means on employment policy and

obligations result from concluded agreements between Czech Republic and EU or

OECD. Labour market development is described in Chapter 9.

Th e current Czech pension system is based on two pillars. Th e fi rst one is basic

obligatory pension insurance with continuous manner of fi nancing (PAYGO). Th e

scheme is universal and secures all economically active persons. Th e regulation

is unifi ed for all insured persons (the Act No. 155/1955 Coll., Pension Insurance

Act as amended) except some administrative and organisational divergences in

departments of the armed forces. Th e second scheme is voluntary supplementary

pension insurance with state contribution that is considered as third pension pillar.

It represents individual saving for old age based on capital fi nancing regulated by

the Act No. 42/1994 Coll., State-Contributory Supplementary Pension Insurance Act

as amended. Rate of this scheme on incomes of pensioners is insignifi cant so far

compared to basic obligatory pension insurance.

Th e following pensions are provided under pension insurance: old-age, full

disability, partial disability, widow‘s, widower‘s and orphan‘s. Old-age pension amount

is composed of the basic amount (stipulated by universal fi x amount irrespective of

duration of insurance and earnings) and a percentage amount. Specialised assistance

in matters concerning pension insurance is provided to citizens and organisations

by the Czech Social Security Administrations except members of the armed forces

(professional soldiers, police, prison guards and others) where the authorities are

performed by the Ministry of the Interior, Ministry of Defence and Ministry of

Justice.

In view of the most signifi cant changes in pension area adopted aft er 1995, when

the Pension Insurance Act was passed, it is necessary to mention amendments

eff ective since 2004: enhancement of age level for entitlement to old-age pension

to reach single level both for men and childless women, cancellation of temporarily

reduced old-age pension (except full and partial invalidity conditions), reduction of

evaluation of period of studies and abolishment of condition limiting the claim on

payment of old-age pension by the amount of gainful employment incomes. Self-

employment was divided into main and minor category (main self-employed persons

always participate in pension insurance irrespective level of their income) and the

range of self-employed persons was extended for persons who are mandataries.

In 2006 there were changes concerning partial invalidity pensions and widow’s

pensions, which are paid parallel with other pension. Payment of partial invalidity

pensions, which were reduced because of amount of gainful employment or which

were not paid out from this reason, belongs in full amount. Th e same situation is for

widows entitled to widow’s pension before January 1, 2006 with limited amount of

this pension (because the sum of pensions reach over the highest stipulated level)

– amount of their widow’s pension was amended starting July 2006. Changes in

the insurance rate consisted in transfer of a part of premium on state employment

policy into the pension insurance system (2 percentual points growth of pension

insurance rate, i.e. from 26% to 28% together with reduction of insurance rate of


17


state employment policy from 3,6% to 1,6%). Th e next change consisted in sequential

raising of minimal base of assess for the determination of self-employed persons

insurance rate in 2004 – 2006.

Having effi ciency since July 1, 2007, the judgment of the Constitutional Court of

6. June 2006 was integrated to the legislation on pension insurance. It regulates the

same way of evaluation of childcare period both for men and women in the form of

declaration on word of honour submitted together with application for a pension.

Adjustment of “excluded periods” evaluation for calculation of personal assessment

base was performed.

In context of adoption of the Act No. 108/2006 Coll., Social Services Act as

amended (introducing care allowance starting 2007), the payments of pension

increase for incapacity were cancelled within pension insurance system. CSSA paid

only additional charges of this benefi t in 2007.

Valorising of pensions was performed twenty times in the period of 1990-2007

(actually pensions are increased regularly every January: enhancement of an average

old-age pension makes up at least 100% of price growth and at least one third growth

of real wage).

4. Sickness Insurance

Currently, there are three systems of sickness insurance in the Czech Republic

(regulated by the separate legislation): sickness insurance of employees, members of

the armed forces and self-employed persons. Th e last major changes in the fi eld of

sickness insurance were performed in the period from 1993 to 1995. In connection

with the tax system reform, the method of calculation of sickness insurance benefi ts

has been changed since January 1, 1993 and it depends on the gross income (instead

of net income). Providing of benefi ts for working days was replaced for providing

for calendar days. Due to the growth of incomes, the maximum income limit upon

which the benefi ts are calculated was increased on January 1, 1994 (from 190 CZK

up to 270 CZK). Th ere has been a possibility of voluntary sickness insurance for self-

employed since 1994. In 1995, the benefi t system of sickness insurance was reduced

– in connection with the introduction of the State Social Support system – to four

types of benefi ts (sickness benefi t, family member care benefi t, maternity benefi t and

pregnancy and maternity compensation benefi t).

Th e amount of sickness benefi t depends on level of incomes of which social

insurance premium is paid (so called assessment base ascertained for the period

in question). Since January 1, 2004, this base has been extended since January 1,

2004 from calendar quarter to 12 calendar months antecedent to the beginning of

incapacity for work. Th e amount of benefi t depends on daily average of these incomes,

so called daily assessment base, which is limited by stipulated way.

Th e maximal level of daily assessment base was 270 CZK (January 1, 1994

– September 1, 1999). Since October 1, 1999, the daily assessment base has been

reduced according to two reduction limits. For the prevention of the backwardness of

the sickness insurance benefi ts were specifi ed that government increases supposing

amounts of reduction limits yearly to January 1, with regard to trend of average wage

(reduction limits are multiplied by special coeffi cient and rounded off up at whole ten

CZK). Th erefore these reduction limits were increased up from amount 360 CZK and

540 CZK (these amounts were valid from October 1, 1999 till December 31, 1999)

to 400 CZK and 590 CZK (since January 1, 2000), to 430 CZK and 630 CZK (since

January 1, 2001) and to 480 CZK and 690 CZK (since January 1, 2002). For reason of

fl oods in August 2002 it was decided to stop valorisation for 2003 and with regards

to public budget reform it was stopped for years 2004 and 2005 also. Th e reduction

limits were increased at the amount 510 CZK and 730 CZK since January 1, 2006.

Since January 1, 2007 the reduction limits were increased at 550 CZK and 790 CZK.

To calculate the benefi t the amount of daily assessment base was totally counted

on the level of the fi rst reduction limit in the period since September 1, 1999 till

December 31, 2003. Since January 1, 2004 the daily assessment base has been totally

counted to the benefi t level aft er 15th day of incapacity for work, 90% is counted

during the fi rst fortnight of incapacity for work. To appoint the amount of benefi t,

60% is counted from the part of daily assessment base reached over fi rst reduction


limit. Th e part of the daily assessment base reaching over second reduction limit is

not taken into account.

Amount of daily benefi t is set by percentage rate calculated from limited daily

assessment base. Since January 1, 2004 the rate for the fi rst three days of sick leave

was halved, i.e. at 25%, the rate of 69% (from the fourth day) has been remained.

5. State Social Support

Th e Act No. 117/1995 Coll., On the State Social Support as amended set unifi ed

concept of State Social Support system using legally determined subsistence level as

base for amount of benefi ts assessment. Th e system guarantees direct help especially

for families with children in social situations provided by law. State Social Support

benefi ts signifi cantly infl uence income situation of families with incomes under

minimum subsistence level leading to decrease of portion of families that receive

social benefi ts.

Real value of benefi ts based on subsistence minimum level is related to living costs

development. When subsistence minimum is amended there is no need to submit

new application for recalculation of nearly all benefi ts. State Social Support benefi ts

are provided both income tested and non-income tested. Parental allowance, foster

care allowances, birth grant and funeral grant are non-income tested. Th e group of

income tested benefi ts includes child allowance, allowance for school aids, social

allowance and housing benefi t. Property of family is not tested when entitlement to

a benefi t is evaluated.

Starting January 1, 2007, the system of State Social Support has been amended

signifi cantly. Th e Act No. 110/2006 Coll., on Living Minimum as amended, introduced

the living minimum („životní minimum“) and the subsistence minimum („existenční

minimum“). Th e living minimum is stipulated as minimum level of cash incomes

for ensuring sustenance and other basic personal needs. Th e subsistence minimum

represents minimal level of incomes for survival. Neither living nor subsistence

minimum include costs on housing. Protection within housing is ensured by housing

allowance (State Social Support) and supplement for housing (system of material

need).

Parental allowance has signifi cantly increased (in 2007 it was counted as 40% of

average wage in non-business sphere in 2005; i.e. 7 582 CZK). Entitlement to housing

allowance was amended. Property owners or tenants are entitled to a housing

allowance if 30% (in Prague 35%) of their family income is insuffi cient to cover

housing costs and at the same time this portion is lower than the relevant prescriptive

costs set by law. Housing costs include rent (similar costs for cooperative dwelling

and fl ats in personal ownership), services and energies.

Change of living minimum concept infl uenced birth grant where an amount of

a value increased from 17 500 CZK to 17 760 CZK for one child, 53 120 CZK for

twins and 79 680 CZK for triplets. Th e growth of some foster care benefi ts amounts

(fostering grant, foster child allowance and foster parent remuneration) was based on

increase of coeffi cients for their calculation.

Statistical surveys concerning latest progress of number and amounts of benefi ts

(until the end of 2007) indicate relatively stable number of benefi ts per a month.

Parental allowance represents c. 59% of total expenditure on State Social Support,

followed by child allowance with c. 21% and social allowance with c. 9%.


32


Average number of benefi ts per a month paid out within State Social Support

made up a sum of 2 414 thous. in 2007. Child allowance was paid out to c. 1 772 thous.

of dependent children, social allowance to c. 242 thous. of families with children

and housing allowance to c. 117 thous. of households. Parental allowance received

c. 308 thous. of parents. Most of the benefi ciaries (especially families with dependent

children) get more types of these benefi ts concurrently. Other State Social Support

allowances represent benefi ts with low number of benefi ciaries and expenditure.

6. Benefits of Assistance in Material Need, Care Allowance and Social Assistance Benefits for People with Disabilities

Starting January 1, 2007, the Act No. 111/2006 Coll., on Assistance in Material

Need as amended came into eff ect. It regulates providing of the assistance for assuring

basic living conditions to persons in situations connected with insuffi cient level of

subsistence, housing and in extraordinary events. Th e main purpose of the system is

motivation to active eff ort for ensuring means to meet basic necessaries of life and to

prevent social exclusion. Th e system is based on the principle that “all persons who

work must be better off than those who are out of work or who avoid work“. Social

work plays an important role in the system of assistance in material need.

Another feature of the system is help to deal with certain special circumstances that

can only be resolved with immediate assistance. It sets rule that everyone is entitled

to receive basic information that can not only address their particular material need,

but in the fi rst place prevent it from occurring. Delegated municipal authorities are

responsible for granting and disbursing of the following benefi ts in material need:

1. Allowance for Living – this benefi t covers cases of material need that tackles the

insuffi cient income of a person or family. Benefi ciaries are entitled to an allowance for

living if the income of these persons or families is less than the amount of living when

reasonable housing costs have been deducted. Th e amount of living is established

on a case-by-case basis based on an evaluation of the person’s income, eff orts and

opportunities.

2. Supplement of housing – tackles cases where the income of the person or family,

including the entitlement to a housing allowance from the system of state social

support, is insuffi cient to cover justifi ed housing costs.

3. Extraordinary immediate assistance – is provided to persons (with low income)

who fi nd themselves in situations that have to be resolved immediately: suff er from

a serious threat to health; persons are victims of a serious extraordinary event z(a

natural disaster, storms and gales, ecological disaster, fi re, etc.); persons do not have

enough resources to cover essential one-off expenditure connected, in particular,

with the payment of an administrative fee; persons do not have enough resources

to acquire or repair basic furniture or durables or to cover justifi ed costs relating to

the education or special interests of dependent children; persons are at risk of social

exclusion (it concerns, for example, the situation of persons who have been released

from custody or from prison, who have left an orphanage or foster care on reaching

adulthood, or who have completed treatment for an addiction).

Th e Act No. 108/2006 Coll., Social Services Act (eff ective since January 1, 2007)

introduced essential innovation in the area of social benefi ts – care allowance. Th e

care allowance shall be provided to persons dependent on another physical person’s

assistance for the purposes of arranging for necessary assistance. A benefi ciary

can reimburse (within this allowance) professional social service or cover costs on

securing assistance within its family. A person shall be considered dependent on the


36


assistance of another physical person in 4 degrees of dependence (from slight to total

dependence).

Social assistance benefi ts for people with disabilities tackles unfavorable level

of living of these persons by providing means for their need related to housing,

transport and provision of special compensatory aids. Social assistance benefi ts for

severely handicapped persons are provided in accordance with Decree by the Czech

Ministry of Labour and Social Aff airs no. 182/1991 Coll., to Implement the Act on

Social Security and Act on Jurisdiction of Czech Republic Bodies in Social Security

as amended.

SEZNAM SKRATEK

Th e Act No. 108/2006 Coll., Social Services Act as amended (eff ective since

January 1, 2007), has brought signifi cant changes in the system of social services. Th is

Act aims to secure assistance to people unfavorable social situation through newly

defi ned spectrum of social services. Th e assistance is intended as activities necessary

for social inclusion and dignifi ed living conditions accordant with level of society

development. Provision of assistance is based on:

• availability – in light of type of assistance, regional availability, accessibility to

information and economic availability,

• eff ective – social service have to comply with needs of human not the system,

• quality – way and scope of provision correspondent to current knowledge and

feasibility of society,

• reliable – provision shall not limit rights and interests of persons,

• economic – public and private expenditures on assistance provision shall

maximally cover objective scope of needs.

Persons in unfavorable social situation that require assistance to be self-suffi cient

are entitled to individual benefi t – care allowance – provided irrespective of origin of

help (family of social services provider). Its amount corresponds to extent of needs.

Th e Act also regulates signifi cant news concerning an authorization for social

services provision. Introduction of register of social services providers (http://iregistr.

mpsv.cz) is basic precondition for obtaining of overview on scope and nature of social

services net. Registration of a social service provider represents one of prerequisite

for transfer of fi nancial means from public budgets.

On the basis of the Act the conditions for reliable, quality and eff ective provision

of social services are stipulated with goal to secure protection of persons with

reduced capability to assert their rights and interests. Th ese conditions form series of

obligations of social services providers and the system of control. Beside the standard

control procedure there is also system of supervision on quality of social services

introduced by the Act as well as conditions of vocational skills for performing

a profession of a social worker.

Henceforth, the state regulates conditions for provision of social services, but does

not provide these services except 5 facilities under administration of MoLSA. Th e

position of the state as a majority social services provider terminated with abolition

of district offi ces. Th e state supports regional and local self-administration to assess

set of needs of its population for formation of available net of services.

Th e structure of social services in light of number of providers was the following

in 2007: state – 0.6%, regional offi ces – 29.8%, municipalities – 23.9%, church – 21.0%

and other providers – 24.7%.

8. Incomes of Population

Development of cash incomes of households in the period from 1994 to 2007 is

taken down in Table No. 8.1. It contains data from the National Accounts Statistics

(CZSO) concerning the sector of households. It indicates that real current incomes

of this sector have increased about more than a third since 1993.

Th e most signifi cant part of current household incomes (actually more than

a half) is represented by the compensations paid to employees (especially wages

and salaries). Th e trend of the synthetic indicator of an average wage in the national

economy is also included in table No. 8.1. Table No. 8.2 describes development of

income situation in basic branches of national economy except fl ows within its

diff erentiation.

To evaluate the development of average wages, we used data from the Czech

Statistical Offi ce (calculation per natural persons). Since 1993 the data include

employees of the Ministry of Defence and the Ministry of Interior.

Table No. 8.3 gives the summary of development in basic groups of social incomes

from the database of the Ministry of Labour and Social Aff airs. Th ese incomes

represent nearly fi ft h of total cash incomes of households. Remaining part of incomes

results from various business activities and increase of capital assets value.

9. Basic Information on Labour Market

According to the Labour Force Sample Survey (CZSO) there were on average

4922.0 thous. employed persons in 2007. Th is is more by 93.9 thous. employed

persons than in 2006 representing 1.9% annual growth (compared to 1.3% annual

growth in 2006). Starting 2004 the employment has increased. Th eir average annual

level is the highest one since 1997. In single quarters of 2007 the year-on-year levels

of growth increased. Employment in the fourth quarter of 2007 represented 4 967.2

thous. persons (the highest amount within quarter surveys since the half of 1996).

Th e growth of employment was aff ected by raising of economic output (growth of

GDP in current prices by 4.4% in 2007).

Employment of women represented the level of 2 115.9 thous. (less than a third

portion on total employment growth only; portion of women on employment

declined to 43.0%).

Th e growth of employment was mainly evident in groups of employees (increase

by 79.2 thous. on level of 4 111.2 thous. persons in 2007) and entrepreneurs (incl.

contributing family workers; increase by 16.8 thous. on level of 796.0 thous. persons

given especially by growth of number of entrepreneurs without employees). Within

the category of business sphere number of entrepreneurs with employees as well

as number of contributing family workers declined. Compared to previous year it

signifi es reverse trend. However, portion of entrepreneurs on total employment is

still above-average compared to EU states.

Number of persons employed in their main occupation with full hours of work

increased (by 92.4 thous. on level of 4 565.3 thous. persons). Number of part time

workers also slightly increased by 3.9 thous. on 245.9 thous. persons with 5.0%

portion on total employment only.

Employment decreased only in primary sector again (by 5.5 thous. persons with

3.6% portion on total employment). Both secondary (industry and construction)

and tertiary sector nearly identically aff ected growth of total employment (given

in absolute expression). Number of the employed in secondary sector increased by

49.9 thous. persons with 40.2% portion on total employment. Industry recorded

growth of employment again (by 39.4 thous. persons). However, compared to 2006

(by 71.7 thous.) this growth was not so signifi cant. Employment growth was based

mainly on manufacturing (growth by 44.0 thous. persons), especially on economic

branches connected with production of cars. Relative share of industry in sector

structure increased on 31.1%. In 2007 there were 10.5 thous. persons that acceded to

construction (aft er a drop in 2006) with share of 9.1%. Portion of secondary sector

in the Czech Republic represents the highest amount compared to other EU states.

In tertiary sector the number of the employed increased by 49.5 thous., on the other

hand the portion on total employment decreased on level of 56.2%.

In terms of regional structures there was accrual of employment in all regions

except Ústecký region. Th ere were 240.2 thous. foreigners in position of an employee


52


in the late 2007 (annual growth by 29.8%) and other 68.9 thous. foreigners with

trade licence. Foreigners represented 5.6% portion on labour force and 6.3% on

employment.

Total employment rate (population aged 15-64 years) as important indicator of

EU employment strategy reached level of 66.1% (by 0.8 percentage point higher than

in 2006). Employment rate of women increased (by 0.5 p.p. on 57.3%) as well as

employment rate of men (by 1.1% p.p. on 74.8%). For population aged 55-64 years

by 0.8 p.p on 46.0%.

Aft er long-term growth the number of economically active persons (the

employed + the unemployed) decreased in year-on-year comparison. Th is decline

was accompanied by growth of employment and decrease of unemployment (more

signifi cant than in 2006). With regard to development of total number of the

economically active population the rate of economic activity declined both for 15-64

years population to 69.8 (by 0.5 p.p.) and for population 15+ on level of 58.8%.

Average number of job seekers registered by labour offi ces in 2007 made up

392.8 thous. persons (there were on average 474.8 thous. unemployed persons in

2006). Number of registered job seekers towards the end of 2006 declined from 448.5

thous. persons to 354.9 thous. towards the end of 2007, i.e. by 93.7 thous. persons (it

corresponds to annual growth of employment). Rate of unemployment in 2007 was

the lowest since 1998.

Number of registered job vacancies signifi cantly increased in 2007 (122.0 thous.

on average). Improvement of indicator „number of job seekers per 1 job vacancy“

was recorded in 2007: average amount of 3.2 that is less by 2.6 job seekers in 2006.

Flows of the unemployed (in and out of register) were lower in 2007 than in

the previous year, but still intensive. Number of new job seekers declined as well as

number job seekers put out of the register. Number of job seekers put out of the register

due to none cooperation with a labour offi ce (as an implication of Employment Act

eff ective since October 2004) was high – 97.2 thous. persons, compared to 87.0 thous.

in 2006.

Concerning risk groups the number of the handicapped dropped down absolutely

– there were 65.2 thous. of them registered as unemployed towards the end of 2007.

However, their share in total number of job-seekers increased from 15.9% towards

the end of 2006 to 18.4% towards the end of 2007.

Absolute decrease of unemployment of persons aged 50+ continued (year-on-year

decline by 12.9 thous.; however, their portion on total unemployment increased from

27.1% towards the end of 2006 to 30.6 % with signifi cant infl uence of 55+ persons,

mainly over 60 years of their age).

Average share of women within job seekers slightly increased (from 53.2% in

December 2006 to 53.9% in December 2007). Absolute number of women (job

seekers) declined in the same period from 238.7 thous. to 191.2 thous.


53


Increase of relative portion of the handicapped, elders and women represents

lower fall (of their number) compared to decrease of total unemployment.

Number of the long-term unemployed (more than 12 months) decreased by 48.0

thous. Th eir portion on total number of the unemployed signifi cantly dropped from

41.2% in December 2006 to 38.6% in December 2007.

With regard to adjusted education numbers of all job-seeker groups decreased.

Th e most numerous is the group of skilled graduates – 39.4% of all job-seekers (the

largest fall of number and portion of job-seekers with this education) and group of

applicants without completed education or having primary education – 31.6%.

Positive aspect was remarked in decrease of number (54.8 thous., annual drop by

23.7 thous.) and portion of job-seekers under 25 years of their age (fall from 17.5%

to 15.4%). Th e reasons are demographic development, increasing need of employers

for young persons, care of labour offi ces (individual action plans). Number of the

graduates and the youth aft er school termination annually dropped from 32.0 thous.

towards end of 2006 to 22.7 thous. towards December 31, 2007.

Another positive fact is decrease of unemployment rate in all Czech regions.

Th e most evident decline was recorded in regions: Moravskoslezský (by 3.0

percentage point), Ústecký (by 2.8 p.p.) and Olomoucký (by 2.3 p.p.). Th ese regions

(together with Karlovarský and Jihomoravský) represent fi ve the worst aff ected

areas by unemployment. Th ese regions count among the four worst aff ected areas

by unemployment. As signifi cant regional diff erences still remain, the divergence

between unemployment rate in districts with the highest and the lowest rate was

decreased by 3.6 p.p. Th e highest unemployment rate as of December 31, 2007 was in

Most district (15.5%, annual decline by 4.0 p.p.), the lowest in Praha-západ district

(1.6%).

In 2007 the supply side of labour market increased (growth of employment, higher

number of job vacancies); decline of demand side accelerated (unemployment).

However, structural aspect of unemployment still continues. Employers off er

job vacancies, but labour force do not oft en dispose of appropriate experience

and education. Employment policy tries to reduce this disparity partly. Another

assumption is improvement of profession and territorial mobility.

10. European System of Integrated Social Protection Statistics (ESSPROS)

European System of integrated Social Protection Statistics (ESSPROS) was

developed by the EC Statistical Offi ce (Eurostat) in cooperation with MS experts

in the 70´s of the last century. ESSPROS represents a signifi cant instrument for

mutual comparison of social protection level in MS. Since its introduction ESSPROS

methodology has been amended in a little scope. On the basis of the agreement

between CZSO and MoLSA the inter-departmental Working group (led by the

MoLSA) for implementation of this system in the Czech Republic was established

in 2000. For the Czech Republic time series of ESSPROS Core system (1995–2006),

module on number of pension benefi ciaries (2000–2006), qualitative data (1995–

206) and module on net benefi ts on social protection for 2002 and 2005 are available

so far.

ESSPROS is divided into the Core system that includes data on receipts and

expenditure in the area of social protection and Modules containing additional

statistical information. All fi nancial transactions under the ESSPROS should be based

on accountancy. In the cases when accountancy sources are not available statistical

and administrative sources as well as estimates can be used.

According to the ESSPROS Manual the conception of social protection is defi ned

as all interventions from public or private bodies intended to relieve households and

individuals of the burden of a defi ned set of risks or needs, provided that there is

neither a simultaneous reciprocal nor an individual arrangement involved. Th e set of

risks or needs is as follows:

1. Sickness/health care

2. Disability

3. Old-age

4. Survivors

5. Family/children

6. Unemployment

7. Housing

8. Social exclusion, not elsewhere classifi ed.

Core system includes social protection in a form of cash payments, reimbursements

and goods and services provided to protected households and individuals. Specifi c

information for more qualitative monitoring of social functions is given in relevant

module. Th e ESSPROS Core system defi nes and describes classifi cation of social

protection schemes. A social protection scheme is a distinct body of rules, supported

by one or more institutional units, governing the provision of social protection

benefi ts and their fi nancing. Social protection schemes should at all times meet

the condition that it must be possible to draw up a separate account of receipts and

expenditures. Schemes are classifi ed according following categories:


58

10. European System of Integrated Social Protection Statistics (ESSPROS)

- decision-making (public and private schemes),

- legal enforcement (compulsory and non-compulsory schemes),

- establishments of entitlements (contributory and non-contributory schemes),

- scope (universal, general and specifi c schemes),

- level of protection (basic and supplementary schemes).

Receipts of social protection schemes in the ESSPROS Core system are classifi ed

by type (social contributions, general government contributions, transfers from other

schemes and other receipts) and origin (institutional sector from which the payment

is received). Expenditures of social protection schemes are also classifi ed by type or

reason for which are paid out.

Th e ESSPROS system identifi es exact reasons for which benefi t under given

scheme and function is provided. It also defi nes social protection schemes with

regard to national (MS) practices to cover all benefi ts with social protection

dimension under above-mentioned classifi cation. Th is is the only way how to ensure

comparable statistics among countries refl ecting their institutional diff erences in the

system of social protection.

With regard to comprehension and complexity of this issue we present the most

elaborate part of Czech system with suppose of minimal further corrections in data

time series: expenditure on social protection according to functions in 1995–2006.

We plan to extend number of tables in the near future under this Chapter. More

detailed data and international comparison of social protection level in MS and other

European countries according to the ESSPROS methodology are available on web

sites of Eurostat.
