In about three weeks, the new minimum wage will apply in Poland. The lowest gross salary will increase by PLN 210, the government decided (in the absence of an agreement between the unions and employers). However, there is also a second factor that will influence the rate hike. The calculation of the net minimum wage from January 2022 will turn out to be more favorable for the employee due to the entry into force of tax changes under the “Polish Deal” program. In the gallery, we present a salary calculator – from the minimum wage upwards, taking into account the new rules.
High inflation is eating up our wages (November estimate is 7.7% year on year). A certain consolation – at least for the lowest earners – will be minimum wage increase and tax changesthat will make your net wage higher.

Regulation of the Council of Ministers on the minimum wage in 2022:
From January 1, 2022, the minimum remuneration for work is PLN 3010. From January 1, 2022, the minimum hourly rate is PLN 19.70 “.
Check how the net salaries of Poles will be affected by the tax changes provided for in the “Polish Lada”.
The calculations are available in the gallery:

An increase in salary to PLN 3010 gross meansthat the employee would get around PLN 2,210 “on hand” under the current rules. However, if we calculate the remuneration taking into account tax changes as part of the “Polish Order”, the minimum net salary will amount to over PLN 2,363.56.
