By how much will the minimum wage increase in 2026?
Media reports indicate that the Labour Ministry proposes to increase the minimum wage in 2026 to PLN 5,020 gross (approximately PLN 3,750 net). The Ministry indicates that that amount will be in line with the forecast of salary growth in the national economy. The proposal is slightly higher than the PLN 5,015 gross postulated by the representatives of trade unions.
There is to be only one increase in the minimum wage in 2026, which has to do with a projected inflation rate of less than 5%.
The Council of Ministers should present by mid-June an official proposal for a new minimum wage.
