In Katowice, Poland, on December 12, 2025, miners protest in front of the Ministry of Energy in response to the deteriorating financial condition of Jastrzebska Spolka Weglowa (JSW). The National Commission of the WZZ 'August 80' organizes a protest in front of the Ministry of Energy in response to the actions of Jastrzebska Spolka Weglowa (JSW). The miners raise concerns about the reduction in the payment of the Miner's Day allowance and the risk of further cuts in employee benefits. They say JSW is in a difficult situation and its current actions are delayed and do not solve the problem. The protesters meet with Undersecretary of State Marian Zmarzly, who receives their list of demands. The Senate approves the government's proposed amendment to the Mining Act, which allows for the gradual phasing out of mines extracting hard coal other than coking coal, as well as protective aid and severance payments. The act has not yet been signed by the president.
