Polish salaries may go up by 3.6% - Aon Hewitt

Polish companies may raise their employees' salaries by 3.6 percent this year, according to the Global Salary Increase Survey conducted by Aon Hewitt consulting firm. Manual workers and qualified specialists would benefit the most from the estimated raise. "This is a good result considering inflation which has been growing at a moderate pace. As Poland's inflation is expected to increase by around 1.5 percent, the real salary is to rise by 2.1 percent," Krystian Oppenheim from Aon Hewitt said. In comparison to other EU countries, Polish employees may record one of the highest salary increases, according to the survey. As many as 569 firms participated in the research.
