Unequal Czech Old Age Pensions for Men and Women in the ECtHR’s Case Law with Special Regard to Andrle v. the Czech Republic

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

This introduction outlines the central issue of gender-based discrimination in retirement age laws in the Czech Republic, as illustrated by the Andrle v. the Czech Republic case. It describes how Mr. Andrle, a male caregiver, was denied early retirement benefits available only to women, a decision upheld by both Czech courts and the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR). The ECtHR justified the policy under Article 14 of the Convention on Human Rights, citing historical and social reasons for the special treatment of women. The introduction also signals the structure and aims of the article: to analyze ECtHR case law in a broader context, to explore the historical background of retirement law in former Eastern bloc states, and to examine the Czech Republic&apos;s legislative changes following the Andrle decision. The author introduces the tension between evolving gender equality standards and historical compensatory measures, setting up a legal and social critique.
