Biedronka's fundamental commitment is to take care of over 70,000 employees and their families. We provide a package of over 20 social programs and benefits for people employed at Biedronka and their loved ones.

196 days were enough for our Biedronka Company Page on Linkedin to be followed by 10,000 people. On our page, we share good practices with the external environment. We tell what's going on with us, show our teams, and also present #wartościBiedronka.

On January 10, 2021, a virtual New Year's Eve party was held for all employees of our network. The event was organized in cooperation with the Event Partners Agency.

Salaries of employees employed in stores and distribution centers of the Biedronka network will be higher by PLN 200 gross per month from January 2021. January pay rises will be given to as many as 58,000 employees of the largest private employer in Poland.

"Biedronka is an inseparable part of the history of the Polish market. We have changed just as Poland's reality has changed in the last quarter of a century." These are the words of the general director of the chain, Luís Araujo, which were included in a letter to employees on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of Biedronka.

The end of the second stage of the Biedronka award for the children's book Piórko 2020 was announced by the chain of stores in an unusual way. The winner of the "Illustrations" category of this year's Piórka, Magdalena Starowicz, received a check for PLN 100,000 from Biedronka. The book cover she designed was used on a mural unveiled in Warsaw's Powiśle. The mural is unique because it is painted with paints that purify the air from smog.

On September 10, the Employer Branding Excellence Award 2020 Gala took place. Biedronka took first place for two internal campaigns: Razem Zadbajmy o Zdrowie and Świeżoznawcy. We also received a distinction in the Employer Branding Strategy category.

Biedronka is changing to celebrate its quarter-century anniversary this year. Since Monday, employees of our stores in the south of the country – from Kielce, through Krakow, to Zakopane – started their day in new, red and black uniforms. Eventually, the new colors and styles of clothing will appear in all stores in Poland.

At Biedronka, we are constantly working on becoming a better employer. Despite many challenges, external experts have appreciated our activities in many areas related to HR policy, which we are incredibly proud of. Thanks to this, we know that our work matters!
