The Supreme Court of Poland dismissed the cassation appeal against a labor court judgment awarding foreign construction workers compensation for accommodation, work permits, and vacation pay. The court held that employers must provide free accommodation exceeding Polish social standards and cover work permit fees, while vacation pay can be paid monthly or as a lump sum. Consequently, the lower court's ruling was upheld, and the case was remanded for cost allocation.
