LEGAL SERVICES FOR DUTCH COMPANIES OPERATING IN POLAND, INCLUDING LABOUR LAW ASPECTS
Providing legal support to foreign entities, including Dutch companies, is one of the specialised areas of law handled by our law firm.
Our firm specialises in delivering legal services to Dutch enterprises conducting commercial activities in Poland. These services range from comprehensive legal support to urgent assistance with specific legal issues, such as labour law, which require in-depth analysis by attorneys with expertise in the relevant legal field.
We offer a wide range of legal solutions tailored to the unique needs of each business client. This includes assistance with drafting and preparing essential legal documents related to personnel within the Polish labour market. Additionally, we provide guidance on mandatory documentation for Dutch employers operating in Poland and advise on additional, non-mandatory documents that may benefit their business operations.
We explain the proper functioning of an anti-mobbing committee, clarify the employer’s responsibilities in preventing workplace bullying, and outline why these measures are crucial for the employer. We also draft important documents, such as workplace regulations, which not only govern employee conduct but also improve the overall efficiency of the team.
We prepare fundamental documents related to the hiring of personnel, such as employment contracts, mandate agreements, contracts for specific work, or other necessary agreements. When a client establishes a branch of a Dutch company in Poland or expands their operations in another form, our services allow them to fully focus on their business objectives. We not only handle the drafting of all necessary employment documentation but also represent the employer in court proceedings or before relevant authorities in the event of a dispute with an employee. It is quite common for employees to challenge their dismissal before the labour court.
We clarify which actions by the employer in terminating an employment contract may be considered violations of labour law, and what legal protection measures are available to employees. We also provide insight into the claims employees can pursue in cases of unlawful or irregular dismissal without notice, as well as potential claims that employers may assert when an employee unlawfully breaches their employment contract.
With years of experience in providing both ongoing and ad hoc legal support to companies operating in the Polish market, we are adept at identifying our clients' needs and significantly increasing their chances of success in potential legal disputes. We also handle matters related to collective redundancies. Our services are tailored to micro-enterprises, small and medium-sized businesses, as well as large corporations and international enterprises.
