The Poles Work 250 Days a Year

How many days do you work in Poland? It varies, and each year you work a few more or less days depending on how many holidays there are on the weekend. Of course, let’s remember about the specifics of work, some specializations and professional areas require more working days and others are more privileged. Teachers and officials work the least each year. Mostly commercial sectors. At the same time, officials and teachers often earn more than salespeople. Absurd – right? The biggest lazy people in Poland are ministers, their absences from work often account for 50% of the working days of the average Pole. This is due to the lack of control over the work of the highest state officials.

The average Pole has to work around 250 days a year. During the year, he has about 115 days off, including 13 public holidays.

The busiest month in Poland is March, with 23 days of work.
The least busy months are December or January.

The act says that a Pole works 40 hours a week (about 160 hours a month), i.e. an average of 8 hours a day, but this is never followed, and sometimes it is necessary to work more. The most common reason for changing jobs is the lack of payment for forced overtime work. (Brux)
