Equal Pay According to the Supreme Court: Identical Job Position Does Not Imply Entitlement to the Same Wage
By resolution dated April 29, 2026, Case No. 21 Cdo 606/2026, the Supreme Court ruled on another dispute concerning equal pay among employees of Česká pošta (Czech Post). The claimant, a counter employee at a smaller branch outside Prague, sought damages of CZK 81,374.35, arguing that she received a lower base tariff wage than employees in Prague branches assigned to the identical job model description and the same tariff grade.
