How we support
As an employer, Poczta Polska creates space for those in need. It organizes and participates in nationwide campaigns and establishes local partnerships with aid organizations and institutions. It also promotes positive attitudes and supports the aspirations of its employees.
Polish Post Group Foundation
The Poczta Polska Group Foundation has been operating continuously since 2010. Until June 2025, the foundation operated under the name "Pocztowy Dar" (Postal Gift). Under the motto "We Give Meaning to Helping," the Foundation combines tradition with a modern approach to philanthropy – from daily support for employees and their families to nationwide initiatives for children and local communities. Support for those in need through co-financing medical procedures, rehabilitation, the purchase of medicines, medical equipment, and treatment, for victims of natural disasters (fires, gas explosions, storms), orphaned children, Christmas packages for those in difficult circumstances, and assistance for non-governmental organizations – these are just some of the forms of assistance it currently organizes. In previous years, it also implemented the "Przekaz ku przyszłości" (Transfer to the Future) scholarship program for gifted children and youth. Thanks to this program, nearly 500 passionate young people have been able to develop their talents.
Collections for those in need
We have been organizing charity collections in our facilities for years.
In 2024, a record was broken – Poczta Polska customers donated almost PLN 7.3 million in gifts and financial resources. Support went to children, adults, and seniors – beneficiaries of foundations collaborating with Poczta Polska, including those in orphanages, nursing homes, and educational centers.
Help for Ukrainian citizens
In 2022, the Foundation actively engaged in providing assistance to Ukrainian citizens.
In collaboration with Poczta Polska (Polish Post), its clients, and entities from the Poczta Polska Group, it sent over 200 pallets of donations to Ukraine, worth over PLN 1.3 million. It also joined the #SzkołaDlaWas (#SchoolForYou) campaign led by the Ministry of Education and Science. As part of this initiative, Ukrainian children residing in Poland are receiving computers, enabling them to connect with their classes in Ukraine. The Foundation has also opened a special sub-account for donations to aid Ukraine.
We help those in need
The Foundation also strives to respond to current social needs and engage in aid programs. During the pandemic, we supported numerous regional medical institutions across Poland.
The funds donated by our foundation – almost PLN 600,000 – were allocated to the purchase of infusion and feeding pumps, as well as laboratory equipment for coronavirus analysis.
Representative for people with disabilities
Poczta Polska employs nearly 1,800 people with disabilities in the open labor market. Most of our employees with disabilities work as postmen, in customer service positions, and in sorting offices. All of them find their place in the organization and often commit their professional lives to the Post for many years.
We are a leader in employing people with disabilities in the open labor market.
On May 10, 2023, the company signed a declaration of a cross-sectoral partnership aimed at significantly increasing the employment of people with disabilities. The declaration was signed by over 20 entities – companies and organizations – operating in the open labor market, across various industries and economic sectors. They thus committed to supporting activities related to an equal and bias-free labor market. These include, among others, promoting the employment of people with disabilities and striving to increase the employment rate of people with disabilities in Poland.

The Polish Post has created the position of Representative Director of the Human Resources and Training Center for People with Disabilities. This Representative monitors projects related to the recruitment of people with disabilities within the company, collaborates with government organizations and non-governmental institutions supporting people with disabilities, represents the company at events related to people with disabilities, and initiates activities related to the workplace. The Representative also supports contacts between employees with disabilities and their employers.
Post offices are located throughout Poland, including in small towns. This gives job seekers, including those with disabilities, a greater chance of finding work close to home.
In addition to positions most commonly associated with the post office, such as postman, customer service representative, back office worker, and sorting office worker, in large centers the offer includes, among others, business sales, logistics, infrastructure, IT, HR, accounting, controlling, public procurement, marketing communications, legal support, control, audit, and occupational health and safety.
Poczta Polska is a large company that has managed to maintain and build a positive atmosphere in many of its post offices, where close relationships are fostered, people support each other, and people recognize each other's strengths and weaknesses. Within such a team, a person with a disability can thrive and achieve professional success.
Supported Practices
Poczta Polska has been supporting people with disabilities for years and collaborating with numerous institutions and aid organizations. Among other things, it organizes supported internships that help young people with disabilities enter the labor market and become independent.
The company has a "Disability Employment Policy ." This document constitutes Poczta Polska's declaration of equal employment opportunities for people at risk of exclusion from the labor market.
