Parenthood protection following the amendment of the legislation – selected aspects
Agata Baran

The article addresses the changes in the parental rights attributing to the parenthood protection, as introduced into the labour code within the amendment of July 2015 and become effective in January 2016. Even though the amendment transforms the system of the parental rights and thus reinforces some of the protective instruments, employers – in the author’s opinion - may refrain from employing young people, and in particular young women, which is why it would be essential to implement certain legitimate incentives for employers. The article is aimed at presenting the new legislation, and it is an attempt at investigating and assessing the parenthood protection status in light of the currently effective legislation, the extent of protection to which a woman is entitled during pregnancy, her rights during the perinatal period, as well as the privileges of the mother and the father of a newly born child.
