Minimum_wage_in_Poland
The minimum wage in Poland is the lowest monthly or hourly remuneration that employers are legally allowed to pay their workers in Poland. The sum is decided by the Polish government.
Before January 1, 2017 minimum wage did not apply to free-for-task agreements which were used to circumvent minimum wage laws resulting in wages far below national minimum wage. In 2013, almost 1.5milion workers were employed on such contracts.
On 7 July 1994 Polish złoty (PLZ) was denominated at a rate 10000:1 to new Polish złoty (PLN). The new currency was introduced on 1 January 1995, and was used concurrently with the old one until the end of 1996.
