Regarding the basic matters in the area of social inequality, one problem that has arisen is the feminization of poverty as a characteristic feature of contemporary poverty. But behind the phenomenon of the feminization of poverty lies something much more serious. Historical sources argue that among the public, across a variety of ages and various cultures, there are “subclasses.” Thus, in democratic systems that are based on respect for human dignity, one can find processes of poverty and social exclusion of people who, due to their characteristics, become or remain strangers in their own society. Although modern democracy based on the concepts of fundamental rights does not formally exclude anyone from the scope of the legal protection, the current framework of social protection systems and many areas of social, economic and employment policies in Poland are not designed to meet the needs of women or otherwise suppress the differences in women’s work. It is stressed that poverty and social exclusion among women in Poland, and also in Europe, requires specific, multiple and diversified responses due to the existing gender policy.
Mobbing is one of the most severe social problems. Due to its global and individual character it poses a threat to the inherent and inalienable right of human dignity. On the basis of existing legislation it is extremely difficult to determine clearly what mobbing is. There is a possibility that an expanded definition of mobbing which contains many of the concepts of the risk of dissemination practices, could lead to a number of negative consequences for the functioning of vocational training of workers. However, there is no doubt that the regulation is required defining mobbing more clearly across many substantial matters. In this case, we discuss a “good of constitutional rank”: human dignity and its protection. Human dignity can run into conflict with decisions of the legislature, particularly in those cases in which the law lacks: — a clear and precise definition of the concept of mobbing and a unique description of this phenomenon. Due to a lack of unambiguous definition of mobbing, there can be many misunderstandings and misinterpretations regarding its essence; — a strict and binding recognition of the consequences of mobbing, especially regarding effects that have a significant impact on the health and productivity of the victims of aggression.
The Law on therapeutic activity provides the changes concerning both private and public sector of medical services. Those changes are relevant also for the position of foundations as non-government actors active on widely understood medical market. The foundations pursue an activity within the meaning of Article 3 of the Law on therapeutic activity, consisting in providing the therapeutic services or promoting the health or performing didactic or research tasks connected with providing therapeutic services — which creates the conditions to realize statutory tasks (protection and promotion of health).
Ustawa Prawo oświatowe operując pojęciem umowy, podając jej niezbędne elementy, nie aspiruje do tego, by traktować ją jako typową umowę nazwaną, czyli taką, której treść jest stypizowana normatywnie. W założeniach ustawy umowa ta ma być rozumiana raczej jako sposób realizacji zadania publicznego, w ramach umowy zawierającej niezbędne elementy charakterystyczne dla danego typu umowy cywilnoprawnej.

The Educational Law Act, by using the concept of a contract and providing its necessary elements, does not aspire to treat it as a typical named contract, i.e. one whose content is normatively provided for. According to the assumptions underlying the Educational Law Act, this contract is to be understood rather as a way of implementing a public task, within a contract containing the necessary elements characteristic to a given type of civil law contract.
For determining the legal character of norms regulating internal relations within the associations of self-government units, the important provision is article 29 paragraph 2 item 2 Act on associations. This provision limits the possibility of repealing the resolution of an association’s organ (also concerning the members of that organ), which is not in compliance with the law or the statute: repealing can be done by the court only, in non-litigation proceedings, on application of the supervisory organ or the prosecutor. This means the court’s interference with the association’s activity should have an exceptional character and take into account the autonomous and self-governmental nature of the association in question.
The positive value of “open administration” will depend on whether the mutual relations between the public and the civil sector will be truly authentic or rather will be based on instrumentalization on the part of public sector. However, the most important issue connected with the application of market mechanisms in the fi eld of social services is related to the confl ict of values. This conflict manifests itself in the collision of economic rationality (professionalization of social services systems) with the spirit of civil society based on solidarity, cooperation and trust.
Although the legal character of associations of self-government units is disputable, it is beyond any doubt that they represent the organisational and legal form which usually complements the activity of self-government. They serve in particular way to support the idea of self-government within the area of performing of public tasks.
Exposure of a dignity and the right to life as strongly protected values is due to the fact that contemporaneity more strongly appropriates the conditions of validity of a norm of human dignity. The following key values: dignity and the right to life, permeate and affect each other (protection of human dignity is supplemented by the circumstance that a human being exists as a person — and does not become a person — from the moment of conception).
The definition of a justice as the obligation of specificactions in relation to other persons from the point of view of equality results from the fact that by implementing of the principles of justice, it is realised the moral imperative of solidarity with people who are worse off , especially for reasons that are not caused by them. It follows the conclusion that the principle of equality before the law not only corrects, but also concretises the more general principle of social justice.
The enactment of a good law is the basic instrument of good governance. The model of creation and application of the law, however, gives rise to an issue. The main flaws of the Polish legislation include: fluctuations of legal provisions, infringements of legislative procedures, lack of transparency, inconsistencies, temporary solutions and its incompatibility with the EU law and the Constitution.
