The pandemic and evolving EU regulations have made employment law one of the most rapidly changing legal fields, demanding specialized expertise and an interdisciplinary approach. At APLAW, we recognize the critical role employment law plays in mitigating risks and ensuring smooth business operations—extending far beyond the Labor Code. We provide comprehensive legal support, tailored to the unique characteristics of each industry and the specific needs of our Clients.
The complexity of Polish employment law, combined with frequent legislative changes, poses significant challenges for both employers and employees. Maintaining extensive employee documentation in compliance with current regulations, including GDPR, adds another layer of difficulty. Moreover, workplace disputes can lead to costly and time-consuming legal proceedings.
Employment law does not operate in isolation. It intersects with civil, commercial, and administrative law, as well as GDPR and criminal law (particularly white-collar crime). Effectively managing employment-related matters requires not only a deep understanding of labor law but also the ability to integrate multiple legal disciplines. At APLAW, our expertise spans these areas, enabling us to offer strategic, comprehensive, and practical solutions.
