The economic situation in Russia is not the best. And many people who want to at least somehow bring their welfare back to normal, decide to go abroad to work. The most common solution is Poland. It is not far, and the language there is more or less clear. But salary in Poland on average, to be honest, is not very different from Russian indicators. And in most cases, the decision to go there turns out to be unjustified. However, first things first.
Minimum
Before talking about the average salaries in Poland, I would like to note attention and a minimum. In 2015, it was decided that it will be 1,750 zlotys. At the current rate, this is approximately 27,000 rubles. And it's tax free. If we take into account all the costs, the amount will be 1,286 zlotys. That is, you can live on Poland in 20,000 rubles, according to the law. May be. But if you try on the amount of prices, you get almost the same as in Russia. 10 zloty (155 rubles) per kilogram of chicken, 3 zloty (46 rubles) per liter of milk, 2.5 zloty (39 rubles) per 1 kg of sugar, 4 for a small packet of cornflakes, 8 for a can of coffee and 3 for 1 liter of juice. Plus travel, payment of apartments, utilities, etc.
Many are interested in what is the minimum and average salary in Poland for Ukrainians who come from a nearby country. The same as for everyone. There are no privileges. But if you translate into hryvnias, then the minimum wage per hour is 80 UAH (13 zlotys). Given that the minimum wage in Ukraine is 1,378 hryvnias (3,400 rubles), it is not surprising why most of the visitors to Poland are precisely its citizens.
Who lives well?
You can only go to Poland to work for IT specialists. However, good programmers are everywhere in price. And the average salary in Poland for IT professionals is far from the highest, if we take into account other European countries. They are paid 1,600 euros per month (about 110,000 rubles). This is data for 2015.
Good money and employees of telecommunications companies. They have about the same salaries as IT workers. And bank employees, like employees of insurance companies, receive about 1300-1500 euros (90-105 thousand rubles, respectively). The labor of power engineers and gas workers is also paid well. That's all.
At the same time, the average salary of IT specialists in Russia is 80,000 rubles (Magadan Oblast is the best indicator). Therefore, it is worth considering - is it worth changing the place of work in your native country for a vacancy in Poland? After all, you still have to pay for housing, to cope with the adaptation period and get used to everything new. It is unlikely that all this will pay off.
Option for everyone
It is worth noting that in this country you can find a paid lesson that does not require knowledge of the language and special skills. The average salary in Poland for such workers is 1 euro per hour. Maximum - 2 €. This is 69-138 rubles, respectively. And the previously mentioned 13 zl per hour, which is the minimum, - 200 p. Usually the work offered for such money does not imply a normalized working day and weekend. Activities are usually associated with agriculture, construction and enterprises that need labor.
Who is in demand?
The highest average salaries in Poland are among people of such specialties who are not popular now. Namely - drivers, welders and plasterers. If you want to get a lot of money, you need to know the language. Then there is a possibility that a person will be accepted into a Polish-Norwegian company. And there the conditions are better and the attitude. What is the average salary in Poland at such enterprises? About 6 euros per hour (415 rubles). With weekends and a normalized schedule per month, you can get more than 110,000 rubles.
There are also gold veins in Poland. But they, like all good things, must be sought. However, having settled in a reputable company, one can count not only on a good salary, but also on insurance. Especially valuable foreign specialists are even provided with housing. Some are allowed to come with family. And they help to draw up all the necessary documents (visa, permits, etc.).
What are the prestigious posts here? These are top and HR managers, business analysts, translators, economists, as well as sales agents related to the cosmetic, pharmaceutical, tourism, food and technical sectors.
Maximum
Above we talked about what the average salary in Poland is. In conclusion, I would like to talk about the maximum that is noted in official statistics (without paying taxes).
The previously mentioned IT specialists receive a maximum of 150,000 rubles. Real estate agent - about 165,000 p. A bricklayer can count on 195,000 rubles a month. Insurers receive 235,000 p. Business Intelligence - 185,000 p. An architect of IT systems - about 260,000 rubles, as well as an engineer testing software. Customer service consultant receives 250,000 p. The maximum income of the head of the enterprise reaches 545 000 p.
Makeup artists have the most modest maximum - only 24,000 rubles a month. Against the background of the aforementioned salaries, it looks really sad. Nutritionists, hairdressers, merchandisers, kitchen assistants and kindergarten educators get a little more. The rest of the salary indicators range from 55 to 140 thousand rubles (depending on the profession).
