Abstract

The subject of this article is the problem of implementation of Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council (EU) 2024/2831 of 23 October 2024 on improving working conditions in platform work1 (hereinafter: Platform Directive 2024/2831) into the Polish legal order in the context of the adoption of two regulatory areas that will be relevant not only to the platform sector, but also to the labour law as such and to all employment relations that are the subject of its regulation. The former is the introduction of measures to facilitate the determination of the correct employment status of those performing platform work (presumption of employment relationship), the latter being the promotion of transparency, fairness, human oversight, safety and accountability in algorithmic management with regard to platform work. The relevance and universal nature of the two objectives adopted in Platform Directive 2024/2831 determines that the Polish legislator, when implementing these provisions into the national legal order, will have to consider regulating them with respect to all employment relations operating in our labour market. In the beginning, the author summarises the 6th national scientific conference in the series “Atypical Employment Relations”, organised on 7 December 2023 by the Centre for Atypical Employment Relations at the Faculty of Law and Administration of the University of Lodz (cnsz@wpia.uni.lodz.pl) on the subject of The development of modern technologies on labour and social security law – challenges for the future, which is the culmination of this volume of the journal “Z Problematyki Prawa Pracy i Polityki Socjalnej”.
