Sankcja karna za niewypłacenie wynagrodzenia za pracę pracownikowi delegowanemu

This article deals with the misdemeanour liability which may be imposed in the event of a lack of payment of a remuneration to a posting worker when a due amount of money for such a remuneration is regulated by a Member Stater other than Poland. The authors analyse the aforementioned problem from the perspective of the Polish misdemeanour law. Having done so, the authors have perceived two problems: lex loci of an act and availability of an interpretation of a legal penalizing norm stemming from the EU directive. The former problem was solved by accepting the proposition that lex loci for a negligent default of payment of a remuneration by an employer of a posting worker is always the country of her principal office which in practise is always the country from which a posting worker is being posted. The latter, by accepting the proposition that a regulation on remuneration for posting workers, which is a body of law of a foreign country, should be deemed as comprising of overriding mandatory provisions, in turn those provisions may be used to interpret a legal norm encompassed with a misdemeanour sanction because those overriding mandatory provisions have theirs base in the EU law that is part the Polish legal system.
