This is not how stuff works in Poland. There's no difference between full-time and part-time benefits, instead, there's a difference between employment contract (UoP) contracting (UZ, UoD) and self-employment.
- Symbiote 5y agoThere are also legal limits on working time, although it's not clear to me which would apply to a warehouse worker. https://www.eurofound.europa.eu/observatories/emcc/erm/legislation/poland-working-time-flexibility https://www.eurofound.europa.eu/observatories/emcc/erm/legis...

- gambiting 5y agoYou can legally opt out of the working time limits in most professions, except for limited few like truck drivers. I'm yet to see an employment contract that doesn't have a clause for the opt out. I work as a programmer contracted for 37.5h/week but of course there's a clause in my contract to say I agree to work more "if needed"(never had to in my 7 years of work here, but still).
- KptMarchewa 5y agoOvertime on UoP is permitted, but regulated. You can't do over some limit (like 400 hours yearly); except if you're a doctor.
- _3u10 5y agoInteresting. Here it's company to company, you can have benefits part time, but most don't offer it as most part time jobs are low wage. (Less likely to have bennies)
- KptMarchewa 5y agoAlso, "benefits" mean very little at that level in Poland, since healthcare is state run - and shit, but equally shit. Private healthcare is usually diagnostics only (also, dentistry and some "luxury" operations like LASIK).
