The right to be offline – notes on the background of existing and proposed regulations. Part II: Polish law

Abstract

The second part of the article focuses on the regulations of Polish law as they relate to the right to rest. The author analyses the employee’s rights and possible sanctions related to the employer’s violation of this right, from the perspective of both doctrine and jurisprudence. The summary answers the question as to whether the Polish regulations can be assessed as sufficient, and whether they can constitute a kind of “guarantee” for employees, in terms of respect for their right to be offline.
