Summary/Abstract: Wyszyński’s thought on work is the result not only of intellectual reflection on the achievements of European thinkers of Catholic social teaching but, above all, it is rooted in his personal experience of spiritual life and biblical formation. This article aims to attempt to answer how intellectual formation in the field of labour issues and labour legislation was shaped in the light of Catholic social teaching. The purpose of the article is also to seek answers to the following questions: what kind of social activity was undertaken concerning implementing the thought of the social teaching of the Church? What is work, and what are the aims of work legislation according to Fr. Wyszyński? What can Fr Wyszyński’s thought on labour legislation contribute to the contemporary doctrine of labour law?
