Tripartite Commission meets with president

President Bronisław Komorowski has held a meeting with the representatives of trade unions and employers. The government was represented by Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz, minister of labor and social policy. “We should reach an agreement over the new form of the Tripartite Commission in the coming weeks,” said Irena Wóycicka, minister in the president’s office. All the involved parties are close to achieving a compromise, she added. Trade unions suspended their participation in the workings of the commission in mid-2013. They argued that the employers’ representation “imposed dictate instead of dialogue.” Unions expect that the new commission will have greater impact on labor law.
