Frequently Asked Questions about Polish Employment Contracts

What is the difference between UoP, UZ, Ud, and B2B?

Umowa o pracę (UoP) provides standard labour code protections and paid leave with full social security. Umowa zlecenie (UZ) is a civil services contract with social and health contributions (exempt for students under 26). Umowa o dzieło (Ud) is a task/result contract without social contributions. B2B is a sole proprietorship contract where you invoice clients directly and manage business costs and ZUS.

Why does the comparison start from company budget rather than gross pay?

Comparing from the employer's total budget provides an honest apples-to-apples comparison of what a business actually spends versus what lands in your personal bank account.

How does the health contribution (składka zdrowotna) differ on B2B?

On tax scale (skala) it is 9% of income. On linear PIT (liniowy) it is 4.9% of income. On lump-sum (ryczałt) it is a fixed monthly tier based on annual revenue.
