Supreme Court dismisses appeal; intergovernmental agreement is not binding labor law source.
Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court of Poland dismissed the cassation appeal against a judgment awarding wages to a Polish employee working in Germany. The employee argued that a 1990 intergovernmental agreement between Poland and Germany set his wage standards, but the Court held this agreement is not a source of binding domestic labor law. Consequently, the Court found the lower court erred by relying on the agreement without properly interpreting the employment contract itself.
Legislator headnote
AI generatedArt. 18 Konstytucji RP; Art. 1 § 2 KMP: An intergovernmental agreement not ratified by the State is not a source of binding domestic law and cannot establish wage rules for individual employment contracts.
