The employer is obliged to provide employees with working conditions that meet the requirements of occupational health and safety in accordance with the Regulation of the Minister of Labor and Social Policy on general occupational health and safety regulations (Journal of Laws 2003.169.1650).

The Polish Accounting Act does not define the concept of liabilities, however the balance sheet layouts indicated in Annexes 1-6 to the Accounting Act allow us to state that liabilities are sources of financing assets. Liabilities indicate where the funds from which the assets were acquired or created came from. The main groups of sources from which the financial resources from which the assets shown in the balance sheet were obtained are: 1) equity of the entity preparing the balance sheet, 2) liabilities and 3) accrued expenses. Such an understanding of liabilities leads to the conclusion that the sum of assets and the sum of liabilities shown in the balance sheet must be equal. This view was presented by the Judgment of the Polish Regional Administrative Court in Warsaw of 17 October 2017, III SA/Wa 2678/16, LEX no. 2760834.

What is market price?
The Act of 28 July 1983 on Polish inheritance and gift tax defines the market value of goods or services. It turns out that this value is determined based on average prices used in the trade of goods of the same type and kind, taking into account their location, condition and degree of wear and tear, as well as in the trade of property rights of the same type. In other words, it is the highest price at which the buyer is willing and able to acquire a given good, as well as the lowest that the seller can agree to.
