Our Colleagues Take the Oath

“I solemnly swear that, in the position I hold, I will serve the Polish State and the Self-Government community, comply with the law, and conscientiously perform the duties entrusted to me.” These are the words of the oath taken today (October 7) by thirteen employees of the Marshal’s Office of the Kujawsko-Pomorskie Region who have completed their preparatory service.

“Working at the Marshal’s Office is a great responsibility. Through your work, you serve the people of our Region. I am confident that by conscientiously fulfilling the duties entrusted to you, you will rise to all the professional challenges ahead. I wish you every success and satisfaction in your work,” Marshal Piotr Całbecki said.

Under the Act on Self-Government Employees, people taking up employment for the first time in local government units in an official position, including managerial positions, sign a fixed-term employment contract for up to six months. During this period, they are required to complete preparatory service. They then take an examination, a positive result of which is a condition for continued employment.

The officials who took the oath represent the following departments:

  • Department of Economic Development
  • Department of Finance
  • Department of Organisation
  • Department of Environment
  • Department of Sport and Tourism
  • Department of Strategic Planning and Regional Cooperation
  • Department of Rural Development
  • Department of Implementation of European Funds for Kujawy and Pomorze
  • Department of Road Infrastructure

This was the 53rd oath-taking ceremony for officials at the Marshal’s Office since the Act on Self-Government Employees of November 21, 2008, came into force.
