Consequences of failure to pay wages on time

27 November 2024   /  News

On the business portal ‘Puls Biznesu’ you can already read an article discussing the consequences of neglecting to pay wages. Failure to pay a salary transfer on time not only results in the accrual of statutory interest. It may also give the employee the possibility to terminate the employment contract without notice.

Our employment law expert, legal counsel Paweł Kempa-Dymiński, emphasises in his commentary that the employee’s actions must be proportionate to the breach committed by the employer. With short delays or minor arrears, immediate termination is generally not justified. In contrast, with long-term non-payment of wages, the employee is entitled to terminate the contract without notice and to receive compensation.
