Salaries in the Polish labor market for Ukrainians

Updated employment data concerning Ukrainian nationals and their earnings within Poland has been released by the National Bank of Poland (NBP). The report shows that over 90% of Ukrainian citizens who relocated to Poland before 2022 are presently employed. The median net salary for Ukrainians working in Poland is lower than the median monthly income of Polish citizens and equals to approximately PLN 4,500 (₴52,000/$1,228).
Employment stability among refugees has also improved. The proportion of those employed under unstable contracts has decreased from 26% in 2023 to 17% in 2025 due to favorable conditions in the Polish labor market and migrants’ active integration efforts. The number of unemployed refugees in Poland has also decreased from 25% to14% for two years. Nevertheless, unemployment among refugees is still 300% higher than among Polish citizens. However, more and more refugees become self-employed.
Moreover, significantly increased administrative fees for obtaining work permits for foreign nationals, including Ukrainians, have been introduced by Poland as of December 1.
