Ubezpieczenia społeczne pracowników miejskich Zarządu miasta Lublina w latach 1918-1939
Social Insurance for Municipal Employees of the Lublin City Council in Years 1918-1939

Summary/Abstract: After Poland regained independence, it operated within various legal systems inherited from the partitioning states. A different legal status was also in force in the field of social security. Establishing a unified social security system in a recovering state was a very difficult task. It was necessary not only to standardize post-partition legislation, but above all, to adapt it to the socio-political conditions of an independent country. The unification of social security rules took place due to the entry into force of the Act on social insurance of 28 March 1933, commonly referred to as “the merger act”. The analysis of the principles of insuring municipal employees of the interwar Lublin reveals that, despite the adoption of uniform legal standards in the field of social security, local governments, or rather local government bodies, had the right under the applicable provisions to self-determine the conditions for obtaining medical assistance and retirement insurance by issuing internal statutes, which led to a kind of particularism of the legal employee insurance system.
