	An employment agreement for replacement is an agreement entered into for the duration of one employee's absence, thereby falling into the category of definitive period employment agreements under the Polish Labour Code as of 2002. There is some controversy as to the legal nature of such agreements. Such agreements for replacing employees are intended to support certain interests and functional goals of the employer. I am of the view that an agreement for replacement that is entered into for less than 6 months should be terminated with 3 days' notice without the requirement of any further regulations. For such agreements entered into for more than six months, a provision should be introduced to terminate with a two weeks' notice period requirement. Such agreements do not provide assurances for women employees who are pregnant.
