The German discount supermarket chain Lidl will open 2,000 new positions at its headquarter, stores and distribution centres across Poland in 2020. The source also reveals that the chain is going to increase monthly wages by PLN 300 (€69.61 as at 14 February 2020) as of March 2020. This means that employees with less than two years of seniority will earn up to PLN 4,150 (€974) gross monthly. The monthly renumeration could grow up to 4,600 (€1080) per month after two years in the job.
In Poland, Lidl has been operating since 2002. Currently, the company has almost 700 stores and employs nearly 20,000 employees across the country.
