O żądaniach alternatywnych pracownika z art. 45 Kodeksu pracy
Journal Title: Radca Prawny. Zeszyty naukowe - Year 2018, Vol 14, Issue 1
Abstract
This article assesses the provisions of the Labour Code, including case law, on alternative claims of employees (Article 45 of the Labour Code) arising thereunder in the event of defective notice or termination of employment. The article contains a justification for the authors’ stance on the need to allow for the modification of claims during the trial before a labour court to the fullest extent possible. The authors’ arguments are supported by references to current views expressed in both commentaries and case law, and further contain an assessment of the dissenting opinion issued at the Supreme Court level (court file No. II PK 264/15). The intention behind the article has been to present the issues, to the extent necessary, by supplementing the arguments with the dominant and established position taken in case law. The authors further buttress their line of reasoning with arguments derived from the principles of labour law and the provisions of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland. Due to the current and, in the hopes of the authors, short-lived departure from the rule and from the need to protect the employee and decide in favor of the employee’s rightful interests as the weaker party in the employment relationship in the above-mentioned judgment (court file No. II PK 264/15) it is necessary to consider the question discussed in its entirety by presenting issues in light of legal advisers’ practice and in a way that is at once simple and takes into account the complete body of legal writing on the subject, including the most recent commentaries.
