| Abstract [eng] |
Although breaches of the duty to avoid conflicts of interest may lead to significant negative consequences not only for the employee but also for the employer, the legislation applicable to all the subjects of employment relations provides a very brief definition of this obligation. In this context, in this master's thesis, the concepts of conflict of interest, as distinguished in the legal doctrine and in the specialized laws, were analysed. In order to define the scope of this obligation, which applies to all subjects of the employment relationship, the possible forms of conflict of interest and the features of liability for breaches of this obligation were analysed. Finally, the possible measures to prevent conflicts of interest and related problems were examined. Through a detailed analysis of the content of the conflict of interest, the work aims to reveal the specific features of the duty to avoid conflicts of interest applicable to entities operating in both the private and the public sectors. A review of the key aspects of the implementation of this institute reveals that the national legislation with regard to the obligation to avoid conflicts of interest for both private and public sector employees is insufficient. Furthermore, the existing legal regulation is considered to be insufficient and could be improved. |
