Time tracking in Czechia is for more than a weekly total. Czech Labour Code Section 96 requires employers to keep per-employee records showing the beginning and end of worked shifts, overtime work, night work, work performed during on-call time, and on-call time held. A practical record therefore needs dates, start times, end times, break context, project or cost center, and approval status.
The standard weekly working time in Czechia is 40 hours. Reduced statutory weekly limits apply in specific operations: 37.5 hours for underground mining and multi-shift or continuous operations, and 38.75 hours for two-shift operations. Your weekly view should make those categories visible when they apply, because one flat target can hide overtime, scheduling pressure, and payroll review issues.
A Czech working-time record should separate ordinary shift time from overtime, night work, on-call time, and work performed during on-call time. That separation matters because each category can affect pay, scheduling decisions, or a later employee request for inspection, extracts, or copies of records at the employer's expense.
Break handling also needs a clear rule. Employers must provide a meal and rest break of at least 30 minutes after no more than 6 hours of continuous work, or after no more than 4.5 hours for juvenile employees. A timesheet that only stores total daily hours leaves managers without a clear view of continuous work periods.
Time tracking records work time. Surveillance-style monitoring is a separate issue under Czech law. Czech Labour Code Section 316 bars workplace surveillance, call recording, email checks, and checks of employee-addressed mail without a serious reason based on the special nature of the employer's activity, and employers must directly notify employees about the scope and methods when such controls are introduced.
Employee time records that identify a worker are personal-data processing. GDPR principles apply, including lawfulness, transparency, purpose limitation, data minimization, storage limitation, and security. Czech Act No. 110/2019 applies GDPR-based processing rules in Czechia. Collect the time data needed for scheduling, payroll, billing, and legal records, and keep broader activity monitoring out of a basic time-entry process.
A one-off weekly total is enough when you need a quick internal check, a draft client summary, or a simple view of work across a few days. It stops being enough when overtime, multiple projects, night work, on-call time, payroll review, or client billing depends on the record. At that point, the workflow needs submissions, manager review, correction history, and locked approved periods.
Everhour Timesheets collect weekly project hours and working hours by person, then let users submit time for approval. Managers can approve, reject, or partially approve submitted time, and approved time stays protected from regular member edits. That gives payroll and billing teams a reviewed record instead of a spreadsheet total that changes after invoices or wage checks begin.

Czech Labour Code Section 96 requires per-employee records showing the beginning and end of worked shifts, overtime work, night work, work performed during on-call time, and on-call time held. A useful system stores each category separately so payroll, scheduling, employee access requests, and management review do not rely on a single daily total.
Yes. The standard weekly working time in Czechia is 40 hours. Statutory reduced limits apply in specific operations: 37.5 hours for underground mining and multi-shift or continuous operations, and 38.75 hours for two-shift operations. Your tracking setup should match the employee category rather than applying one weekly target to everyone.
Employer-ordered overtime is allowed only exceptionally for serious operational reasons and may not exceed 8 hours in any individual week or 150 hours in a calendar year for an employee. Total overtime may not average more than 8 hours per week over a balancing period of up to 26 consecutive weeks, or up to 52 consecutive weeks if a collective agreement sets that period.
Yes, when the employer and employee agree to compensatory time off for the overtime worked. Otherwise, overtime gives the employee earned wages plus a premium of at least 25% of average earnings. The time record should show the overtime hours separately from ordinary shift hours before payroll decides the pay or time-off treatment.
No. Time tracking records working time for payroll, billing, scheduling, and statutory records. Surveillance-style monitoring faces separate limits under Czech Labour Code Section 316, including a serious reason based on the special nature of the employer's activity and direct notice about scope and methods. GDPR and Czech Act No. 110/2019 also govern identifiable employee time data.
Everhour Timesheets collect weekly project hours and working hours by person, then let employees submit time for manager review. Managers can approve, reject, or partially approve entries, and approved time stays locked for regular members, which gives payroll and billing teams a reviewed record before downstream work starts.
Everhour can track time inside supported project tools such as Asana, ClickUp, Jira, GitHub, Monday, Notion, Trello, and Basecamp. Tracked time flows back to one reporting layer, so project, client, and team views use the same underlying entries instead of separate tool exports.
Use Everhour Timesheets to collect weekly working and project hours, review submissions, lock approved entries, and give payroll or billing a cleaner Everhour record.
