Polonia - Refusal to comply with collective agreement:

In 2011, Budimex bought the Przedsiębiorstwo Naprawy Infrastruktury (Infrastructure Repair Company) in a privatisation process. One of the conditions of the sale was the investor’s commitment to conduct collective negotiations with the employees. An agreement was concluded guaranteeing workers job security until 2016. However, one year afterwards the company started a voluntary redundancy program offering resigning employees severance pay. In September 2012, the company was declared bankrupt and workers who had resigned during the voluntary redundancy program were asked to return their severance pay in January 2015.
