Poland Expands Internship Law To Private Firms

TOK FM Warsaw 12d11d Impact 5

A new internship law in Poland has expanded to include all employees as of May 1. The law allows periods worked under mandate contracts or business activities to be counted toward seniority and work experience. Previously, the law only applied to the public sector starting January 1. Minister of Development and Technology Tomasz Lewandowski stated that digital technologies provide a basis for further reducing working hours. Lewandowski compared the current technological shift to the 19th-century introduction of machinery which also shortened work time. He described the goal as a social evolution focused on allowing citizens more time for family and hobbies. The minister said that this transition should be an evolution rather than a revolution to avoid harming economic development.

New rules in Poland will allow more forms of employment besides full-time positions to be counted towards work experience for pension purposes. This applies to both the public sector and private companies, according to Minister Agnieszka Dźmianowicz-Bąk. These changes are set to take effect in July, coinciding with the new state labor inspection law.
