Poradca č. 3/2026 - Zákon o službách zamestnanosti - zákon s komentárom
Služby zamestnanosti tvoria základný nástroj štátu pri zabezpečovaní práva občanov na prístup k práci. Ich hlavným cieľom je podporovať zamestnanosť, znižovať nezamestnanosť a vytvárať rovnováhu medzi ponukou a dopytom na trhu práce. Služby zamestnanosti upravuje zákon č. 5/2004 Z. z. o službách zamestnanosti. Služby zamestnanosti sa zaoberajú podporou občanov na trhu práce. Dôležitou súčasťou služieb zamestnanosti je aj aktívna politika trhu práce – teda nástroje, ktoré pomáhajú občanom získať pracovné návyky a zamestnať sa, napríklad prostredníctvom rekvalifikácií, príspevkov na samostatnú zárobkovú činnosť či aktivačných prác. Služby zamestnanosti sa poskytujú nielen nezamestnaným občanom, ale aj zamestnávateľom, ktorí hľadajú pracovníkov. Štát tak plní úlohu sprostredkovateľa a partnera, ktorý prispieva k efektívnemu fungovaniu trhu práce. K akým zmenám dochádza s účinnosťou od 1. 9. 2025, sa dočítate v tomto čísle mesačníka.
Titul obsahuje úplné znenie zákona po novelách s komentárom:

Zavádza sa úprava aktívnych opatrení na trhu práce za účelom zlepšenia a zefektívnenia integrácie najviac zraniteľných osôb na trh práce, najmä dlhodobo nezamestnaných a osôb s nízkou kvalifikáciou, podporou ich pracovného začleňovania, rozvojom sociálnych kompetencií a získavaním vedomostí a zručností potrebných pre trh práce. Novelou zákona sa zabezpečí aj zosúladenie právneho rámca najmä v oblasti aktívnych opatrení na trhu práce a podpory zamestnávania občanov so zdravotným postihnutím s aktuálnymi potrebami aplikačnej praxe za účelom zlepšenia ich efektívnosti a účinnosti.
Bohové a bohyně starých Slovanů
Jaká měli staří Slované božstva? Byl zástup bohů a bohyň jednotný, nebo se na územích obývaných Slovany významně lišil?

Tato populárně-naučná publikace představuje základní obrysy náboženské kultury starých Slovanů.

The Last Dynasty
A definitive and thrilling new account of the last great dynasty of ancient Egypt, from Alexander the Great to Cleopatra.
When Alexander the Great arrived in Egypt, he overthrew the hated Persian overlords and was welcomed as a saviour. He repaid them by showing due reverence to their long-held traditions. After his death, as the Greek empire broke up and his closest advisers squabbled over the spoils, a Macedonian general named Ptolemy seized the Egyptian throne, ushering in a new dynasty that would last for 300 years.
What followed was as dramatic and compelling as any period in Egyptian history. The unique blend of Greek and Egyptian cultures led to an unprecedented flowering of learning, as the new city of Alexandria became home to the Great Library, the largest in the ancient world, that attracted the brightest minds. Wars, incest, double-dealing, foreign empires and huge wealth all followed, but the rise of the Roman empire would eventually bring the Ptolemaic era crashing to a close.
Helped by the latest archaeological discoveries and using original papyrus documents, Toby Wilkinson uncovers a story that can only now be fully told. From courtly life to the role of women, from international trade to the tensions between native Egyptians and incoming Greeks, all aspects of life are here. Filled with surprising insights, vivid descriptions and larger-than-life characters, and written in the author's compelling narrative style, The Last Dynasty will appeal to all lovers of history, archaeology, art and culture.
The Singularity is Nearer
In this visionary and fundamentally optimistic book, the legendary oracle of technological change explains how AI will transform our species beyond recognition.
Within our lifetimes, we will be able to connect our brains directly with AI, enhancing our intelligence a millionfold and expanding our consciousness in ways we can barely imagine. This is the Singularity. Ray Kurzweil is one of the greatest inventors of our time with over 60 years' experience in the field of Artificial Intelligence. Dozens of his long-range predictions about the rise of the internet, AI and bioengineering have been borne out. Here Kurzweil explains how the Singularity will occur and what it will mean to live free from the limits of biology: What will we choose if our bodies need no longer define us? What new realms of beauty, connection and wonder might we inhabit? Who will we become if our minds can be stored and duplicated? Drawing on a lifetime's expertise, Kurzweil presents deeply reasoned answers to these questions and argues that we can and will transform life on earth profoundly for the better.
The Stuff of History
Too often history focuses on the tales of kings, or those (often men) who were given the credit for shaping our stories. Yet, what fascinates most are the figures who have passed through the cracks of history, people like:
- The fourteen-year-old boy who lived undetected in the chimneys of Buckingham Palace
- Archie Lee, the re-inventor of Santa Claus
- The women at Playtex who helped put the first man on the moon
- Unknown war hero Tommy Brown, whose extraordinary bravery helped the code breakers of Bletchley
But it's not just forgotten heroes that you'll meet, this compendium also reveals the curious back stories behind everyday objects - the humble fork, the china cup, the real history of tea, and Queen Victoria's underwear - to name but a few.
The Stuff of History is a thoughtful, entertaining and carefully curated miscellany of fascinating forgotten histories from Antiques Roadshow stalwart, and popular historian with a huge Instagram following, Steven Moore.

The Heat and the Fury
In this ground-breaking book, environmental journalist, Peter Schwartzstein, takes the reader on the first on-the-ground exploration of climate change's contribution to global conflict. From the ravaged villages of Iraq, where ISIS has used drought as a recruiting tool and weapon of terror, to the pirate-ridden waters of Bangladesh - and drawing on more than a decade of reporting from dozens of countries - Schwartzstein writes about the unexpected ways in which climate change is feeding global unrest and conflict. Through the stories of the soldiers, farmers, spies and others affected around the world, he makes sense of a form of conflict that remains poorly understood, even as it devastates the lives of so many millions of people.
While researching this book, Schwartzstein was chased by kidnappers, detained by police and told, in no uncertain terms, that he was no longer welcome in certain countries. Yet, as he recounts, these personal brushes with violence are simply a hint of the conflict simmering in our warming world.
As Schwartztein's unparalleled reporting shows, there's nothing inevitable about climate violence. In fact, as he sets out, the same stresses that are pitching people against one another can even help bring them back together.
Fascism
What is fascism? Is it revolutionary? Or is it reactionary? Can it be both? Fascism is notoriously hard to define. How do we make sense of an ideology that appeals to streetfighters and intellectuals alike? That is overtly macho in style, yet attracts many women? That calls for a return to tradition while maintaining a fascination with technology? And that preaches violence in the name of an ordered societ? n the new edition of this Very Short Introduction, Kevin Passmore brilliantly unravels the paradoxes of one of the most important phenomena in the modern world--tracing its origins in the intellectual, political, and social crises of the late nineteenth century, the rise of fascism following World War I, including fascist regimes in Italy and Germany, and the fortunes of ''failed'' fascist movements in Eastern Europe, Spain, and the Americas. He also considers fascism in culture, the new interest in transnational research, and the progress of the far right since 2002.ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.
Happy Sexy Millionaire
FROM THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR AND HOST OF THE DIARY OF A CEO PODCAST
We are losing ourselves. We're chasing the wrong things, asking the wrong questions, and polluting our minds. It's time to stop, it's time to resist and it's time to rethink the fundamental social blueprint that our lives are built upon.
'As an 18-year-old, Black, broke, lonely, insecure, university drop-out from a bankrupt family, I wrote in my diary that I wanted to be a "Happy Sexy Millionaire" by the age of 25. By 25 I was a multi-millionaire having created a business worth over $300m dollars. Ironically, in achieving everything I set out to, I learnt that I was wrong about almost everything . . . The world had lied to me. It lied to me about how you attain fulfilment, love and success, why those things matter, and what those words actually mean.'
In this book, Steven Bartlett dismantles the most popular, unaddressed lies about happiness that we've been led to believe. He exposes the source of these lies, examines the incentives that fuel them and replaces them with a practical set of scientifically proven and unconventional ideas that will help you to live a truly fulfilled life, a life full of the love you seek and the success you deserve.

A radical new history of energy and humanity's insatiable need for resources that will change the way we talk about climate change
*Winner of a Nouvel Observateur Award, a Fondation pour l'écologie politique Award, the Prix du jury Turgot and the Prix du Sénat du livre d'histoire 2025*
*Selected as an Economist and Financial Times Book of the Year*
It has become habitual to think of our relationship with energy as one of transition: with wood superseded by coal, coal by oil, oil by nuclear and then at some future point all replaced by green sources. Jean-Baptiste Fressoz's devastating but unnervingly entertaining book shows what an extraordinary delusion this is. Far from the industrial era passing through a series of transformations, each new phase has in practice remained almost wholly entangled with the previous one. Indeed the very idea of transition turns out to be untrue.
The author shares the same acute anxiety about the need for a green transition as the rest of us, but shows how, disastrously, our industrial history has in fact been based on symbiosis, with each major energy source feeding off the others. Using a fascinating array of examples, Fressoz describes how we have gorged on all forms of energy - with whole forests needed to prop up coal mines, coal remaining central to the creation of innumerable new products and oil still central to our lives. The world now burns more wood and coal than ever before.
This book reveals an uncomfortable truth: 'transition' was originally itself promoted by energy companies, not as a genuine plan, but as a means to put off any meaningful change. More and More and More forces its readers to understand the modern world in all its voracious reality, and the true nature of the challenges heading our way.
Adamův návrat, 3. vydání
Západní společnost má pro muže množství lákadel: peníze, moc, společenskou prestiž, vzdělání, sex – to vše vydává za sám cíl jeho existence. Přesto právě dnes je pro řadu mužů čím dál tím bolestnější nedostatek opravdového smyslu a pocit nenaplnění. Tradičním prostředkem sebenalezení, který se rozvinul u mnoha různých kultur, jsou iniciační rituály, rituály přechodu. Právě chybějící prvek iniciace považuje Rohr za jádro mnoha problémů dnešní společnosti.

The Maya Myths
The perfect introduction to the gods, heroes and ancestors of the great Maya civilization.
Highly complex and divided into politically fragmented noble houses, the Maya civilization produced a diverse and complicated mythology that varies between groups and retellings. For example, there are three different myths about the origins of the sun and moon, in one creation myth animals and objects rise up to torment humanity; whilst in another, pots shatter and speak, unleashing demons upon the people.
Elsewhere, heroes descend to the ballcourt of the underworld where trees grow fruit in the likeness of severed heads, the ancestors converse with animals and the Maize God is caught in a perpetual cycle of death and rebirth. But to the Maya these were more than fireside tales, these myths formed the foundation of their culture, weaving together their ancestral and primordial pasts into a cohesive and meaningful narrative.
In The Maya Myths Mallory Matsumoto skilfully evokes the enduring vibrancy of Maya culture, from the peak of the Maya hieroglyphic tradition in the eighth century AD, through the invasions of the Spanish conquistadors up to the present day. The book draws from texts, images and Maya oral histories, reflecting a history of contact and change, rather than a sealed-off past. The Maya region has always been fragmented, leading to a unique cultural and linguistic diversity resulting in a varied and intriguing mixture of stories. Here are well-known texts like the Books of Chilam Balam and the Popol Vuh, Spanish texts, as well as lesser-known sources. This will highlight the richness and varied nature of Maya myths, offering readers a deeper understanding of the communities that produced these captivating stories.
Applied Epistemology
Human knowledge is fundamentally social. Most of the processes by which we acquire and evaluate information in everyday life—giving and receiving testimony, identifying experts, and relying on them—involve whole communities of people. The successful use of knowledge to solve problems is thus most often a collective achievement. Likewise, the failure to leverage knowledge is seldom the fault of a single individual.Beginning each chapter with a real-life example, Applied Epistemology demonstrates how various concepts of knowledge relate to problems arising in practical contexts. From trusting testimony and recognizing experts, to acknowledging bias and resisting propaganda, Applied Epistemology teaches us how to use theories of knowledge to navigate our complex world.
