Health Care

  • IOCB doctor: Sylva KOHOUTOVÁ, M.D. is the medical doctor employed by IOCB who covers the compulsory health checks at the start and end of your contract, as well as at regular intervals in between. She can also act as your GP (general practitioner). Her office is located at Zelená street 14, just outside the back gate of the IOCB campus (Details).

  • IOCB dentist: Monika HORÁČKOVÁ, M.D., whose practice is in building D (Details).

  • Personal leave and sick leave: Each IOCB employee is entitled to up to 4 paid days of personal leave (previously sick days) per calendar year, which enable absence from work in case of a short-term health indisposition without applying for sick leave or annual leave. These days are not transferable beyond calendar years. Effective from 1 August 2023, "sick days" are changed to "personal leave"; the number of days to be taken is increased by 1 (i.e. 4 calendar days per year). Read the Directive   for more details.
    This leaflet   describes guidelines on how to apply for sick leave in detail, including the eligibility requirements for paid sick leave.

  • Psychological counselling: IOCB employees can use one of two options, either
    1. partially subsidised psychological consultations provided by the institute's contractual partner Dr. Magdalena FROUZOVÁ, or
    2. services of the IOCB well-being consultant Dr. Hoffit ABRAMSON.
