Labour shortage deserves attention also from the point of view of labour law as it affects one of its basic theoretical pillars through the dissolution of the subordination bond between the parties. In tight labour markets, employers themselves need to create a bond that will retain workers within their organization. In our view, a favourable labour market situation never means a complete cessation of subordination. Instead, labour shortage only makes it easier to find a new job, but the employee will still be subordinated in that next job too. For most employees, they simply need wages to maintain their lives and it is unconditional to the current supply-demand relation at the market.
