A brief guide to hiring in Poland
How is payroll managed in Poland?
In Poland, both employers and employees are required to make monthly contributions to the ZUS (Zakład Ubezpieczeń Społecznych), the national Social Security system. These contributions include payments towards the State Pension, Disability Fund, Sickness Insurance, Health Insurance, Accident Insurance, Labour Fund, and The Funds of Guaranteed Employee Benefits.
What are the standard employment regulations?
Employees in Poland are entitled to a minimum of 20 days of holiday entitlement annually. There is a unique aspect regarding seniority, as increased holiday entitlement is awarded based on total employment history, including both current and former employers. Individuals with a total employment history of 10 years or more across all employers are entitled to 26 days of holiday.
What should be considered when terminating an employee?
To dismiss an employee in Poland, a specific procedure must be followed. Termination can occur by mutual consent or be initiated solely by the employer, each requiring a different approach. In any case, it’s recommended to consult with our employment law specialists to ensure the termination process is compliant.
