Postupky

Postupky is a Czech term that denotes progression or advancement and is used in different contexts. The exact sense depends on the field and the rules governing it.

In sports and competitions, postupky refer to the teams or competitors that qualify for the next round or stage of a tournament. The number of participants advancing and the criteria (such as group rankings, scores, or knockout results) are determined by the competition’s rules. The term is commonly used by media and organizers to describe who moves forward.

In education, postupky describe promotion to the next grade or academic year. A pupil or student earns a postupky if they meet the required criteria, such as exam results or satisfactory completion of coursework, enabling progression to the next level of study.

In employment and compensation, postupky can denote stepwise increases within a pay scale. These incremental raises, often tied to years of service or position levels, represent a structured path of salary growth.

In broader administrative or procedural contexts, postupky may refer to the sequential steps in a process or workflow. This use emphasizes the ordered progression from one phase to the next.
