On the Home Field: Everything You Need to Know About the Athlete’s Employment Contract

Sport is not defined only by the rules on the field. Rules also exist off the field, in various contracts in the field of sports, including employment contracts. The Sports Law and the Labor Law, as lex generis, regulate the employment status of professional athletes. The employment contract of an athlete is adapted to an entirely different reality that reflects the dynamic and unpredictable life of an athlete – from the absence of fixed working hours, through matches, numerous training sessions, bonuses for victories, various competitions, transfers between clubs, to strict disciplinary responsibility. Understanding these differences and how the legal...

Use of Official Devices Provided by the Employer for Private Purposes: Limitations of Employer Liability Under the GDPR

We often encounter the practice that employers provide employees with official devices (phones, computers, and other work equipment) for the purpose of performing work tasks. The boundaries between business and private use of these devices often become unclear, which can lead to legal issues, especially when it comes to the protection of personal data. In this regard, this article considers the decision of the High Court of Ireland in the case McShane v. Data Protection Commission, case no. (2025) IEHC 191 dated April 3, 2025 (“Decision”). In the specific case, the question arose whether the employer could bear responsibility as...

Combating Deepfake Content

Deepfake technology uses artificial intelligence (AI) — specifically deep learning techniques — to create highly realistic fake images, videos and audio recordings. Such content can be based on modifying existing material (e.g., face-swapping) or generating entirely new material in which a person appears to say or do something they never actually did. While these examples may seem harmless at first glance, they infringe upon an individual’s right to their own likeness and voice. This was, among other reasons, one of the drivers behind the 2023 strike of American actors, which halted film and TV production for several months. Why is...

Issues concerning legal status and special protection for certain categories of employees are frequently placed In background.

When and in What Manner Is a Temporary Representative of the Company Appointed?

During its business operations, a company may find itself in a situation where it is left without a director. The reasons for this can vary (resignation, dismissal, death and similar). Besides the company itself, whose business operations become difficult or impossible, third parties, primarily creditors, also suffer consequences. To overcome such situations, the law establishes the institute of a temporary representative of the company. In this article, we examine the issue of appointing a temporary representative to a limited liability company, as the most common legal form of business entities. Conditions for Appointing a Temporary Representative For a temporary representative...

Legal Aspects of Work via Digital Platforms: Initiatives and Guidelines of the International Labour Organization

With the development of the digital economy, new forms of work organization and performance have emerged, particularly through digital labor platforms (e.g., Glovo, Wolt, Uber, Upwork, Freelancer). This so-called platform economy has opened new opportunities for work, especially for those facing barriers to accessing the labor market. At the same time, work through digital platforms brings numerous challenges concerning labor rights and worker protection, as well as those arising from modern technologies, such as algorithmic management, without adequate oversight and legal safeguards. Individuals who find and perform work via these platforms face insecure and non-transparent working conditions, unexplained automated decisions,...
