Directive (EU) 2019/1158 of the European Parliament and of the Council on work-life balance for parents and carers implies changes to the Polish legal system by the legislator.
One of the biggest changes will be the granting of an individual right to parental leave for fathers, up to four months. After the implementation of the changes as a result of the „work life balance” directive, the father will have an individual right to parental leave, regardless of whether the mother is entitled to it. Gentlemen who have had a child will only have two months of parental leave to use. If the man does not use them, they will be lost because, in accordance with the planned implementation of the regulations, they cannot be transferred to the mother.
