A Prague district court recently rejected a claim by Marie Causevicova, a 51 year old economist, against her former employer, Prazska teplarenska heating utility, that the company practiced unequal treatment in the hiring of a new financial director. Ms. Causevicova claims the position went to a man less qualified than she. She has appealed this case, recognized as the first gender discrimination case in the Czech labor market.
