From the employee handbook of a Polish law firm [1]:
> Generally, an employee cannot refuse to work overtime, because it is part of the employee’s duties. The PLC
imposes the obligation on the employee to work conscientiously and to follow the directions of superiors on
how to work, unless they are contrary to law, or the contract of employment. Legal writers and case-law of the
Polish Supreme Court opine overtime can only be refused when the overtime limit on hours has been exceeded.

- mkay313 6y agoI would expect a lot of the CDPr employees to not be actual employees but contractors (forcing people to set up a single-person company, „jednoosobowa działalność gospodarcza”, is a poular practice here) which would put the workers in an even worse situation. At the same time, while refusing to work overtime may be a bad look at some companies, a lot of others have very strict policies on actually being able to have their overtime even classified as such (because overtime results in either extra pay or holiday time). Honestly, I don’t believe most of the developers, QAs, etc really want this crunch but they know their careers might be silently ruined if they don’t agree with those higher in the ladder.
