Obligations to agree and consult trade unions under the draft Polish Pay Transparency Act

The draft Polish act implementing the EU Pay Transparency Directive imposes a number of obligations on employers that require cooperation with workplace trade union organisations or – where no such organisations operate – with employee representatives elected by the workforce. This article analyses the scope and nature of these obligations, with particular emphasis on the fundamental distinction in Polish employment law between consultation and agreement. It also discusses the practical challenges that the new regulations may create for employers and social partners.
