The Polkast is back, with an episode about the workers' movement in Poland.

We had the pleasure to speak to Katarzyna Duda, author and researcher working for the All-Poland Alliance of Trade Unions (OPZZ), and Maciej Grodzicki, economist and activist with the union Inicjatywa Pracownicza (Workers' Initiative).

What is the trade union landscape in Poland? What have been the biggest victories - and defeats - of recent years? Is the PiS government pro-worker? What's the legacy of Solidarność? And how have trade unions responded to Ukrainian refugees joining the workforce?

Tune in to hear us tackle these questions, and many more.
