Employment Practice: Newsletter Q3 2024

In spite of the third quarter of 2024 falling during the holiday period, many new HR topics and issues have emerged, both then and now in early autumn, which we will summarise in this edition of the Newsletter. It is particularly worth paying attention to the entry into force of the Act on the protection of whistleblowers and the controversies associated with it, the new minimum wage rates that will be effective from 1 January 2025, the extension of deadlines for submitting applications for certificates for persons with disabilities, and the extension of the validity of disability or degree of disability certificates, special measures prepared in response to the floods, which may remain with us for a longer time, as well as the ongoing work at the EU and national levels on draft directives and laws that may soon affect the labour market in Poland.
