History of IPP and the description of IPP activity
The Chamber of Polish Employers was established in the summer of 2003 from the initiative of companies delegating employees to Germany. After Poland's access to the European Union in May 2004 the Chamber of Polish Employers extended its activity on other European Union member states and countries outside the European Union.
The Chamber of Polish Employers (www.ipp.org.pl) unites Polish entrepreneurs - exporters offering services within the area of the European Union. Members include numerous temporary employment agencies, offering Polish temporary employees to foreign contractors. The Chamber of Polish Employers monitors the market of services within the European Union and supports companies providing cross-border services, among others by submitting information for these business entities. More and more foreign employment agencies and foreign industrial companies join the group of IPP members.
Since 2006 the Chamber of Polish Employers remains to be the biggest Polish organisation associating companies dealing with cross-border employment of employees. Every year more than 2100 companies sending employees abroad are taking advantage of services and support offered by the Chamber of Polish Employers.
In 2004 the Chamber of Polish Employers joined the CEA-PME, the largest European confederation associating unions of employers.
The Chamber of Polish Employers is an apolitical organisation, taking advantage, both in Poland and abroad, as well as within institutions of the European Union, of the help offered by members of parliament representing various political options and lobbyists.
The Institute of Cross-Border Employment (www.izt.org.pl) established by the Chamber of Polish Employers is a scientific-research institution undertaking legal, tax, insurance and social issues related with cross-border employment of workers in an interdisciplinary manner. The studies conducted by the Institute are precursor studies and within numerous fields, the only studies in the country. The Institute elaborates expert appraisals for the requirements of court proceedings conducted both in Poland and abroad - ordered by common courts, parties and attorneys of court disputes.
The head office of the Chamber of Polish Employees is located in Warsaw. The Chamber has permanent branches in eight European countries, responsible for contacts with authorities of the countries where IPP members operate, and with foreign partner organisations.
