Minimum wage PLN12/h to be introduced in September

Minister of Labor, Elżbieta Rafalska said that the hourly minimum wage of PLN 12 may be introduced in September 2016. "I once said that it will be effective as ofJuly 1, because I would like it to be July 1. Workers are waiting for it, it is an anticipated solution, but there are so many amendments to the project that we have sent for consultations and the time is slipping away. We are speaking of September 1 now, but we have social partners, trade unions, employers' associations and we have to reconcile opposing arguments," Rafalska told private broadcaster TVN 24.
