Czech Severance Pay Calculator (Odstupné)
Calculate Czech severance pay (odstupné): 1, 2 or 3 average monthly earnings by length of employment, or 12 after an injury at work.
These are minimum amounts; a collective agreement can give more. The odstupné is subject to income tax but not to social or health insurance. Previous employment with the same employer counts if the gap was 6 months or less.
What it does
Under § 67 of the Czech Labour Code (zákoník práce) an employee dismissed for organisational reasons (closure, relocation, redundancy), by notice or by agreement, gets severance pay (odstupné) of at least 1 average monthly earnings if the employment lasted less than 1 year, 2 from 1 to 2 years and 3 from 2 years. After a work injury or occupational disease it is at least 12 average monthly earnings.
How to use it
- Type your average monthly earnings.
- Type the time with this employer and the reason.
- Read the odstupné.
