Summary/Abstract: The increase of the Polish minimum pay can be considered in different contexts. From the perspective of various industries it is quite cheap. From the perspective of the employees concerned, it turns into a sense of security and greater satisfaction with the payment received. From the perspective of the precariat, the minimum pay is an opportunity to get rid of uncertainty. What is more, the minimum pay is also associated with other ideas, such as basic income, maximum pay or unification of the minimum pay across the European Union. Appropriate combination and introduction of these ideas may lead to a decrease in the number of precariates and to increased satisfaction with the work amongst Poles. These considerations may be the beginning of a discussion on introducing the basic income.
