Koszt polskiej płacy minimalnej i propozycja dochodu podstawowego

Abstract

The increase of the Polish minimum pay can be considered in different contexts. From the perspective of
various industries it is quite cheap. From the perspective of the employees concerned, it turns into a sense
of security and greater satisfaction with the payment received. From the perspective of the precariat, the
minimum pay is an opportunity to get rid of uncertainty. What is more, the minimum pay is also associated
with other ideas, such as basic income, maximum pay or unification of the minimum pay across the European
Union. Appropriate combination and introduction of these ideas may lead to a decrease in the number of
precariates and to increased satisfaction with the work amongst Poles. These considerations may be the
beginning of a discussion on introducing the basic income.
