Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the employer's cassation appeal regarding deductions for accommodation and tools from foreign workers' wages. The court found that when an internal pay regulation became less favorable than existing employment contracts, it could not be applied retroactively without terminating the original contracts. Since the employer failed to issue such terminations, the original, more favorable terms regarding cost deductions remained in force.
