Summary/Abstract: Thanks to cash, people can meet their basic existential needs, such as having an apartment or buying clothes and food. The basic source of income generation is gainful employment, for which remuneration is paid. It is the pay is the main subject of this work. On the basis of available sources of work, the focus was on the analysis of remuneration at the Polish level, using the available econometric knowledge. The aim of this paper was to determine the structural parameters of the econometric model, which allowed for appropriate construction of the wage model in Poland taking into account the regional differentiation in the years 2002–2015. The econometric model of wages in Poland, in terms of voivodeship, allowed to describe changes in Polish wages. Based on the results of the estimation of the created econometric model it can be stated that the trend function confirms the upward trend of the studied phenomenon, which is manifested in the increase of the average monthly salary for each voivodship in each year of observation. The increase in the average remuneration for each of the voivodships was at different levels, but very similar in the country and will be characterized by the highest level of fit.
