An employer and an individual may conclude an
agreement on specific work if the expected scope of the work to be carried out under the agreement does not exceed 100 hours. The estimated scope of work includes work carried out by the employee for the employer in the same calendar year under
another agreement on specific work; the sum of these activities may not
exceed 100 hours.
An agreement on specific work may be concluded orally or in writing.
The agreement must specify the work task, the agreed compensation and
often the deadline for the task; in a written agreement or a written
record of a verbal agreement, the employer must specify the expected
scope of work in compliance with the preceding paragraph, unless the
scope is directly specified within the definition of the work task.
The work task must be completed by the set
deadline; otherwise, the employer may repudiate the agreement. The
employee may repudiate the agreement if he/she cannot complete the work
task because the employer has not provided the agreed work conditions;
the employer must compensate the employee for the damage suffered.
The compensation for the completion of the work task
is payable upon completion and delivery of the work. The parties
may agree that part of the compensation will be paid after a specific part
of the work task is completed. Having discussed the issue with the
employee, the employer may adequately reduce the amount of compensation
if the completed work does not comply with the set provisions.
Note!
An agreement on specific work does not give rise to
participation in the health insurance scheme; therefore, employees who have concluded an agreement on specific work do not pay health insurance premiums and have no title to health benefits.
