Abstract

The paper presents an analysis of selected aspects of motivation and engagement of hard coal mine employees working in longwall faces. The analysis of survey results covers selected questions from a broader survey conducted in the analyzed mining companies. The miners had a negative opinion on the incentive programme in their workplaces, stating that it is ineffective. The survey also included factors affecting the engagement of the entire research sample in their work, showing their significance level for the respondents.
