The “Labor Law 2025/2026 – Practice, Changes, Challenges” conference will provide a comprehensive overview of the most significant updates, interpretations, and practical insights shaping Polish labor law in the coming years. Key topics include the 2025 Labor Code amendments taking effect in January 2026, the employment of foreign nationals under new regulations, and the impact of employment tenure on employer costs. The program will also address pay transparency and the gender pay gap, evolving perspectives on mobbing, updates to occupational health and safety standards in light of heat and stress, and the deregulation of labor and insurance law, examining whether it represents modernization or potential disruption.
Partner Karolina Schiffter will present during the session “Foreigners at Work: How to Navigate the Maze of New Regulations,” where she will discuss the simplification and tightening of procedures for obtaining work and residence permits, new obligations for employers, and the expanded control powers and higher penalties related to the illegal employment of foreign workers.

Konferencja „Prawo Pracy 2025/2026 – Praktyka, Zmiany, Wyzwania” zapewni kompleksowy przegląd najważniejszych aktualizacji, interpretacji i praktycznych wskazówek kształtujących polskie prawo pracy w nadchodzących latach. Wśród kluczowych tematów znajdą się nowelizacje Kodeksu pracy 2025, które wejdą w życie w styczniu 2026 r., zatrudnianie cudzoziemców w świetle najnowszych przepisów oraz wpływ stażu pracy na koszty ponoszone przez pracodawców. Program obejmie również zagadnienia dotyczące jawności wynagrodzeń i luki płacowej, zmieniających się podejść do mobbingu, aktualizacji w zakresie bezpieczeństwa i higieny pracy w kontekście upałów i stresu oraz deregulacji prawa pracy i ubezpieczeń, z analizą, czy oznacza ona modernizację, czy potencjalny chaos.
Partner Karolina Schiffter wystąpi podczas panelu „Cudzoziemcy w pracy: jak poruszać się w gąszczu nowych przepisów”, w ramach którego omówi uproszczenie i zaostrzenie procedur uzyskiwania zezwoleń na pracę i pobyt, nowe obowiązki pracodawców oraz rozszerzone uprawnienia kontrolne i wyższe kary związane z nielegalnym zatrudnianiem cudzoziemców.
