New provisions on the posting of workers

Since 18 June 2016, new legal provisions on the posting of workers in the framework of the provision of services have been in force.

As of that date, each employer posting workers to work in the territory of the Republic of Poland is obliged to submit:

• An employer’s statement on the posting of a worker to the territory of the Republic of Poland – on the day of commencement of the services at the latest.

If the data included in the statement change, an employer also has a duty to submit:

• A notification of change of the statement of the employer posting a worker to the territory of the Republic of Poland – no later than within 7 working days after such change takes place.

The statement and notification shall be submitted in the Polish or English language electronically or in paper form.

Electronic route (through the Internet)

If you have a qualified electronic signature or a trusted profile, you can fill in the form online and send it electronically.

Online forms:

You do not have to print, sign and scan those forms. It shall be enough when you fill in the statement or notification form on the computer and confirm it with a qualified electronic signature or a trusted profile.
