Polityka społeczna UE w aspekcie koordynacji zabezpieczenia społecznego ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem Polski
The social policy of the European Union on coordination of the social security with a particular example of Poland

Summary/Abstract: Contemporary societies exist in formulary systems of welfare shaped in individual countries over the past two centuries. Within the social policy in Europe the institutions of tangible benefits have their own long history and they are the subjects of developing researches. In the 20th century the social security systems of the European countries were built. The social security systems are the result of different historical, economic, demographic and cultural conditions. In spite of coordinating within the legal regulations, we have differences in the quality of the systems, various benefits and naturally there are differences in financial resources in the European Union. The exchange of information between authorities in Brussels and the Member States is an important aspect of coordination of social security systems in the European Union. Authorities of the Member States are to inform their Partners about changes in legislation and other administrative activities. The rules concerning security system coordination in the European Union must be obeyed by the authorities and administrative bodies, security institutions and the courts of the Member States. If legal regulations of a Member State are contrary to legal regulations of the European Union, the latter prevails. The social policy of the European Union regarding social security is one of the important projects, which shows the Member States guidelines for development. They are aimed at improving the standard of services, especially in the countries where social security systems require specific actions to be reformed.
