Reviewed Proceedings of Contributions from a Scientific Conference

This reviewed collection of contributions from the scientific e-conference Legal Language in Application Practice, held from December 3 to 21, 2018, presents various academic contributions.

Legal language, as expressed in legal norms, is specific and should ideally be unambiguous, concise, and resistant to multiple interpretations. Is this an ideal world that does not exist but is worth striving for? Interpretative challenges and ambiguities in legal language and terminology (especially in the Labour Code) led the Department of Labour Law and Social Security Law at UPJŠ in Košice to undertake the VEGA grant project No. 1/0526/17 titled Linguistic and Sanction Mechanisms in the Creation and Operation of Labour Law Norms.

As part of this grant project, the department organized an e-conference open not only to labor law specialists but also to experts from other legal fields. Unsurprisingly, interpretative issues extend beyond labor law. The contributions in this collection are thus somewhat interdisciplinary, though with a focus on labor law. We hope this collection serves as an introduction to broader research and deeper study of legal language by experts beyond legal theory. Additionally, we trust these contributions will inspire you, the readers.

Proceedings of the International Scientific Conference of Doctoral Students and Young Researchers

At the Department of Constitutional and Administrative Law of the Faculty of Law at Pavol Jozef Šafárik University in Košice, a research team led by the principal investigator Associate Professor JUDr. Radomír Jakab, PhD., is conducting a research project entitled "Extraterritorial Effects of Foreign Administrative Decisions in the Conditions of the European Union," supported by a grant from the Scientific Grant Agency under number 1/0187/22.

The aim of this project is the scientific examination of the extraterritorial impact of administrative decisions of the EU member states on the territory of other member states, in order to assess the need, possibilities, and desirable scope of harmonizing legal regulation among EU member states to enhance the free movement of administrative decisions within the European Union. On April 27, 2023, in connection with the project, an international scientific conference of doctoral students and young researchers titled "Law Without Borders" was held, attended by doctoral students and young researchers from Slovak as well as foreign universities.

At this conference, contributions based on various legal systems were presented to highlight the interweaving and mutual influence of different legal orders. The conference featured presentations not only from positive law disciplines but also from theoretical and historical legal perspectives. Scientific papers based on these contributions were compiled in the proceedings.

The collection of scientific contributions offers an interdisciplinary analysis of the challenges labour law faces due to digitalization and social change. Its main goal is to highlight potential synergies between the technological management of work processes and the promotion of diversity and inclusion in the workplace, with a focus on legal mechanisms that ensure equal opportunities and protect employees. The collection includes studies on various aspects of labour law protection, such as the prohibition of discrimination, transparency in algorithmic management, protection of individuals with diverse needs, and legislative challenges related to GDPR. It also features contributions to innovative remuneration systems and the protection of socially and health-disadvantaged groups, with special attention to employees of different sexual orientations and pregnant women. A significant portion of the work is dedicated to issues surrounding the use of artificial intelligence and algorithmic management in decision-making within labour relations. This publication serves as an insightful resource for academics, lawyers, students, and practitioners addressing modern employment law challenges, and it encourages further discussion on innovative approaches to contemporary labour law topics.
