Everything indicates that the list of public holidays in Poland will be extended. A bill has been submitted to the Sejm, which establishes 12 April as the Day of the War Invalid. The fresh public vacation is intended to honor people who have suffered permanent harm to their wellness as a consequence of warfare and military service. Does this mean that from 2026 we will gain an additional day off work?
