(Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, 2017) Litwiniuk, Przemysław
As of 31 August 2017, the Polish Agricultural Market Agency and the Agricultural Property Agency have been abolished and on 1 September 2017 the National Support Centre for Agriculture was established to replace both. By operation of law, the Centre has taken over all the rights and obligations of the Agricultural Property Agency. The purpose of this article is to answer the question whether the transfer of all employees of the former Agricultural Property Agency to the National Support Centre for Agriculture, following the transfer of the property and tasks of the Agricultural Property Agency was carried out in line with the provisions of Article 231 of the Labour Code, in conjunction with the directly applicable provisions of the European Council Directive 2001/23/EC of 12 March 2001 on the approximation of the laws of Member States relating to the safeguarding of employees' rights in the event of transfers of undertakings, businesses or parts of undertakings or businesses. The author states that the Agricultural Property Agency was an economic entity within the meaning of the Directive and not a public administration body. The above Directive qualifies its employees for protection resulting directly from the provisions of secondary European Union law.
