Summary/Abstract: The contract for the provision of employee recruitment services constitutes a civil law contract — an innominate contract. It involves providing a service that supports employers in acquiring employees with the desired professional qualifications. It falls within the scope of employment agency services as defined by the Act on Labour Market and Employment Services (regulated activities). As a service contract whose essential elements have not been explicitly defined by the legislator, it also belongs to the broader category of mandate contracts (sensu largo) within the meaning of Article 750 of the Civil Code. Consequently, the provisions of the Civil Code regarding mandate contracts apply accordingly to this agreement, while also taking into account the specific provisions of the Act on Labour Market and Employment Services.
