The Martial Law and Its Impact on Labour Relations in Poland / Stan wojenny i jego wpływ na stosunki pracy w Polsce

Journal Title: Studia Prawno-Ekonomiczne - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue

Abstract

The most dramatic moment of the ‘Solidarity’s Revolution’ which led to the collapse of the communist system, not only in Poland but also in the whole Central and Eastern Europe, was the enactment of the martial law by the military junta on 13 December 1981. The martial law imposed a special regime on the Polish nation. Its provisions covered all areas of activity, including labour relations. As a consequence, many labour law acts were replaced with new regulations. Those acts deprived Polish employees and their representatives of many of their rights, despite of protests in the country and the international support, including that given by the ILO. The 35-years’ anniversary of the martial law which took place several months ago was an inspiration to recall the labour law of that time and to attempt to summarise the evolution of the Polish labour relations since that period till 1989. The time which separates us from those events helps us to do it sine ira et studio.
