How we calculate the minimum wage
The minimum gross wage is taken from the current Council of Ministers' Regulation (PLN 4626 in 2026). Minimum hourly rate = minimum wage / monthly working hours (default 168 h). Estimated net is calculated by subtracting: employee social contributions (13.71% × gross), health contribution (9% of the base after social contributions), and PIT advance (12% after PLN 250 deductible costs and the PLN 300 monthly tax credit when PIT-2 is filed).
Example: full-time, first half of 2026
For a full-time employee (168 hours/month) in H1 2026: minimum gross wage is PLN 4626. The minimum hourly rate is PLN 30.20. After deducting ZUS contributions (PLN 634.16), health contribution (PLN 360.35) and PIT advance (approx. PLN 167), estimated net pay is about PLN 3465.
