Agenda

17.11 [Employment] Workforce transformation, restructuring and evolving workforce models

How can businesses adapt their workforce to rapidly changing economic, technological and regulatory realities?

Join our webinar to explore the legal and practical aspects of workforce transformation in Poland. We will discuss restructuring options available under Polish law, the challenges of collective redundancies, and emerging workforce models driven by digitalization, AI and evolving business needs. We will also examine key employment considerations in business reorganizations and transfers of undertakings, providing practical insights to help organizations manage change effectively while mitigating legal risk.

  • Drivers of workforce transformation in Poland — key factors driving changes in the employment model (digitalization, AI, demographic changes, cost pressures)
  • Restructuring toolkit under Polish law — an overview of available restructuring tools: collective redundancies, voluntary redundancy schemes (PDO), crisis agreements, changing notices
  • Collective redundancy process - practical challenges — the collective redundancy procedure in practice: consultations with trade unions / employee representatives, notifications, severance pay
  • Evolving workforce models — new models of work organization: EOR, outsourcing, body leasing, B2B versus employment, remote and hybrid working, platform work
  • Transfer of undertakings (TUPE / Art. 23¹ of the Labor Code) — transfer of a workplace in the context of reorganization: information obligations, protection of employees, cooperation with social partners

18.11 [Real Estate] Key Amendments to the Polish Spatial Planning and Land Development Act

Major changes to Poland’s spatial planning framework are set to reshape the way development projects are planned and delivered.

Join our webinar to gain a practical overview of the latest amendments to the Spatial Planning and Land Development Act and understand what they mean for investors, developers and other market participants.

Our experts will guide you through the new rules governing zoning decisions, changes to the concept of supplementary investments, adjustments to general zoning plans, and the introduction of urban agreements as a new planning tool.

  • New Precondition for Issuing Spatial Planning (Zoning) Decisions (in Polish: Decyzje o warunkach zabudowy)
  • Revised Definition of "Supplementary Investment" (in Polish: Inwestycja uzupełniająca)
  • General Zoning Plan (in Polish: Plan ogólny gminy) — Scope Adjustments
  • Urban Agreements (in Polish: Umowy urbanistyczne) — New Local Law Powers.

19.11 [Corporate] Gender in Polish Corporate Law: From Boardroom Quotas to Linguistic Forms

Join us for a discussion on two timely topics: Poland’s implementation of the EU Women on Boards Directive, including the new 33% gender-balance target for listed companies, and the legal implications of feminatives in Polish legislation. Our speakers will share practical insights on governance, reporting and compliance obligations, as well as the interplay between legislative drafting, constitutional equality and legal interpretation.

  • How are Poland’s new gender-balance requirements changing corporate governance?
  • How do feminatives affect legal interpretation?
