Polish retirement and pension system developments

Overview

In Poland, legislative and administrative discussions regarding retirement and pension systems have been noted. The Sejm’s Committee on Petitions processed a proposal to unify the retirement age for both men and women at 62 years. This proposal suggests a gradual transition and includes provisions to maintain special rules for hazardous work and compensation for career breaks related to childcare.

Separately, the framework for minimum pension eligibility remains defined by specific contribution and non-contribution periods, requiring 20 years for women and 25 years for men. For entrepreneurs, the recognition of seniority depends on the fulfillment of insurance obligations and the actual payment of contributions.
