On Wednesday, the Ministry of Labour published on pages RCL bill on this issue. According to it, from July 1 this year, the minimum hourly rate for contracts-orders and service contracts is to be 12 dollars.
The Minister of family, work and social policy Elizabeth Rafalska, during a press conference in Szczecin, he announced that the minimum rate of the contracts on behalf of 12 gold per hour will take effect in the second quarter of the year.
There will be a public consultation project
the head of the Ministry stresses that government project will be subject to consultation, similar to those that take place with the introduction of the program Family 500+. – In the coming weeks it will go the way of inter, public consultations, to hear the positions of employers’ organizations and trade unions – she added.
Minister Rafalska ensures that there will be money in the budget to cover the introduction of a new hourly rate. – Decent remuneration of an employee is the weight that the Polish economy has to bear. You can not allow this to Polish employee was paid like a slave – said the head of the labor department.
The law is to protect the lowest earners
The project assumes that entrepreneur or other organizational unit, which does not pay due fencing for each hour of work in accordance with the project and did not keep records of the number of hours worked will be subject to a fine of one thousand. zł to 30 thousand. zł.
The draft amendment to the law on the minimum wage and the Law on the State Labour Inspectorate is to protect those who are paid at the lowest level.
“In practice, there is in fact a situation in which the person performing work on the basis of a civil contract is for a fixed hourly rate at a level much lower than the minimum remuneration for work under an employment relationship. Civil law contracts often replace the employment relationship, becoming a practice aimed at reducing the cost of employment “- write the authors of the project in its justification.
You will need to record working time
the document also assumes the need to keep records time by the employer. It also provides coverage stronger protection of workers by labor inspectors – will check whether employers comply with their paying employees rate 12 zł gross per hour.
The bill provides for the repeal of Article. 6 paragraph. 2 and 3 of the Law on the minimum wage, according to which the amount of the employee’s pay during the first year of employment may not be lower than 80 percent. of the minimum wage. Repeal of this provision tolerate diversity of the minimum wage due to seniority. After the entry into force of the amendment, all employees – regardless of seniority – will be entitled to the minimum wage in the same height.

Linking the hourly minimum wage?
According to Jack Męciny advisors Confederation Lewiatan and a member of the Social Dialogue, a good idea would be to linking the hourly minimum wage. This will align the provisions on civil law contracts and jobs, which will reduce the risk of circumvention.
– It is easy to imagine that some of the orders now implemented under the hourly rate will be implemented in the form of a lump sum or orders from certain the amount of wages, and then it will be difficult to apply the hourly rate. Integrating the hourly minimum wage and access to the standard 12 zł in the specified term, it would be the best solution. I think that the Council of Social Dialogue employers, trade unions and the government will work out together such a compromise – said Jacek Męcina in an interview with the agency Newseria business.
