“…Although there is an opinion that the agreements on the implementation of anti-crisis shields were generally “effective” in preventing job losses (Latos-Miłkowska, 2020), their role as potential boosters of social dialogue was rather limited. As reported by the National Labour Inspectorate (PIP, 2022) monitoring violations in the implementation of anti-crisis shields, “the signatories to the agreement with the employer were most often trusted persons, i.e.…”

PurposeIn the context of debates on the role of social partners in shaping anti-crisis policies, the article explores the developments of social dialogue in Poland following the outbreak of the pandemic. The central research question is whether the crisis has helped to revitalise social dialogue or has it further revealed its weaknesses that were apparent before it.Design/methodology/approachThe paper is based on the combination of literature review and the analysis of primary data derived from 22 expert interviews with the representatives of trade unions, employers and ministries collected in 2020–2021 in four essential industries (education, health care, social care and logistics).FindingsThe analysis suggests that the pandemic led to reinforcement of “illusory corporatism” in Poland, deepened mistrust among social partners and triggered a shift to informal channels of influencing policymaking. The weakness of the social partners and the strong position of the right-wing populist government meant that fears of recession and a health crisis were insufficient to develop “crisis” corporatism. While business interests were represented better than labour in policymaking, limited labour-friendly outcomes have been achieved as a result of workers’ mobilisation and unilateral decisions of the government rather than tripartite social dialogue.Originality/valueBased on original empirical research, the article contributes to the discussion on the impact of the crisis on social dialogue under patchwork capitalism. It points to the role of strong governments and informality in circumventing tripartite structures and the importance of essential workers’ mobilisation in response to the lack of social dialogue.

Protection of jobs has become one priority aim of the legislator during the crisis caused by the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus pandemic. In the justification of the draft Act of 2 March 2020 on special solutions relating to the prevention, neutralisation, and combating of COVID-19 and other contagious diseases and the ensuing crisis situations (COVID Act), it was emphasized that the aid mechanisms introduced in the Act were supposed to prevent mass collective redundancies. And although the legislator tried to preserve sustainable employment during the COVID crisis, only a part of the introduced legal provisions offered a guarantee of work to employees. This article aims to provide an overview and assessment of the aid mechanisms implemented by the Polish legislator to protect jobs during the COVID crisis. The anti-crisis activities of the legislator, intended to preserve sustainable employment, can be divided into indirect and direct measures. An analysis was carried out taking into account the above division. Based on the analysis, reflections are formulated on the effectiveness of the implemented aid mechanisms. Finally, conclusions for the future are offered.

The crisis caused by the outbreak and spread of the COVID-19 pandemic forced the legislature to make numerous legal changes. The undertaken measures comprised labour law understood in the broadest sense. They were intended to protect the economy, including jobs, from the dramatic consequences of the spread of the virus and the associated danger. The extraordinary circumstances called for specific measures, focused on protecting work and workers. The drafting of protective regulations, under such special circumstances, could not take place without dialogue involving the labour. At the multi-company level, this was seeking concrete solutions to protect the employees. In turn, at the company level, the partners exercised the rights guaranteed by the anticrisis regulations. The article offers an analysis of the legal situation of participants in social dialogue – both the employees and the employers. In retrospect, it is possible to evaluate specific measures which have been adopted.
