Legal contracts for contractors in Poland

In Poland, there are two main types of contract for IT contractors: the employment contract and the civil law contract. 

Employment contract for IT contractors in Poland

An employment contract is a type of contract where the IT contractor is classified as an employee and is subject to Polish labor laws. Under this type of contract, the company is responsible for paying taxes, social security contributions, and other employment-related costs. This type of contract is suitable when the company needs the IT contractor to work on a full-time basis, and requires a long-term commitment.

Civil law contract for IT contractors in Poland

A civil law contract, also known as a service contract, is a type of contract where the IT contractor is classified as self-employed. This type of contract is suitable when the company needs the IT contractor to work on a short-term or project basis. Under this type of contract, the contractor is responsible for paying their own taxes and social security contributions.
