The remuneration rules for the Wójt are set out in the Council of Ministers’ Regulation of 25 October 2021 on the remuneration of local-government employees, which makes the amounts of the basic salary and functional allowance dependent, among other things, on the number of municipality residents.

  1. basic salary—maximum level of PLN 10,250.00,
  2. functional allowance rate—up to PLN 3,150.00.

Pursuant to Article 38(1) of the Act of 21 November 2008 on local-government employees, a long-service allowance, also known as a seniority allowance, is a mandatory component of the Wójt’s remuneration.

Pursuant to § 6 of the aforementioned regulation, the special allowance is due in an amount equal to 30% of the combined basic salary and functional allowance.

Article 36(3) of the Act of 21 November 2008 on local-government employees states that a wójt (mayor, city president), starost and voivodeship marshal are entitled to a special allowance. The special allowance is a mandatory component of the Wójt’s remuneration.
