JSW's decision to limit the payment of the St. Barbara's Day bonus caused outrage among employees. The company's management board emphasizes that initially a complete suspension of bonus payments was considered, but ultimately it was decided to pay 30%. amount due. This was explained by the financial difficulties the company was struggling with.

Trade unions rejected this proposal, considering it unacceptable. In the published statement, JSW assured that the decision was necessary to ensure the company's financial stability. However, trade unionists do not hide their disappointment.
Trade unionists do not intend to stop at words. According to Radio Zet, Solidarity has given the JSW management board until Wednesday to start negotiations. If talks are not initiated, the miners announce protests. The August 80 trade union has already announced a demonstration in front of the Katowice headquarters of the Ministry of Energy, planned for December 12.
Krzysztof Łabądź, chairman of Sierpnia 80 at JSW, in an interview with Radio ZET emphasized that employees cannot bear the costs of the company's savings.
“It cannot be the case that an employee tries his best to get the company out of a difficult situation and in return has his salary reduced” said Swan.
The miners remind us that the St. Barbara's Day award is not only a tradition, but also the result of their year-long work. Łańdź added that the decision to limit payments may have serious consequences. “I wish the CEOs good luck if they believe that after the decision not to pay Barbórka, the miners will work peacefully,” he noted.

Trade unionists emphasize that they expect full payment of due benefits, which for them are not only a financial matter, but also a symbol of recognition for their efforts in difficult working conditions.
