Jobs in Poland

Poland is one of the EU's most proactive countries on pay transparency, achieving partial Directive transposition in December 2025. Salary range disclosure before interviews and gender-neutral job titles are now legally required. A comprehensive bill covering the remaining Directive obligations — pay gap reporting, right to information — was published the same month. The country has the third-longest average working week in the EU at 38.9 hours, but this is set to change. A national 4-day week pilot launched in January 2026 with 90 companies and over 5,000 employees, after nearly 2,000 employers applied for 50 million PLN in government funding. Salary transparency in job postings remains low at around 15%, but the new legislation is expected to drive rapid change. Warsaw is the primary tech hub, with a growing number of international companies establishing engineering offices.
