Forms of administering artists' working time are original. The said time is only the basis to assess the tasks in units called "arrangements"., "shows" or "rehearsals" etc. For the reason of a group work character, especially of' rehearsals and shows their timing over certain periods is decided by the superiors like the artistic manager or the director of the artistic institution. The scope of executed tasks is flexible in relation to seasonal filuctations of the work demand in the artistic institution, In face of the lack of artists competence to influence that timing one could speak here of a balanced size of tasks, analogically to a balanced working time regulated in the code provisions. The artistic institution becomes competent in thegulating the size of leisure time of its employees. The director's competence to decrease norms of work for particular artists can can create a problem of artist's right to work understood as a right to being faeticiously employed. A variety of original forms is also encountered in the regulation of extra work of artists. These are mostly the so called ad-hoe substitutions different to common substitutions. The originality can be viewed in additional paying for over average intensity of work what is unusual on the grounds of our regulation. Particual attention can also be paid to regulating individual non standarized work including artist's performances apart of his artistic institution in the place and time selected by the artist himself. These forms of employment require a further study. The flexible forms of managing artists working time can provide many indications for the further shaping of the new process of making the working time more flexible also in other spheres of employment in our country.polinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessArtykuł
