About Warsaw

Warsaw is the capital of Poland and the country's largest business centre, home to the Warsaw Stock Exchange and the Polish government. Its rebuilt Old Town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the city has become an important base for finance, shared-services centres and technology firms serving clients across Europe.

Warsaw uses Central European Time, UTC+1, moving to Central European Summer Time, UTC+2, in summer. The whole of Poland is in one zone, shared with Germany, the Czech Republic and much of the continent. Warsaw is one hour ahead of London and one hour behind neighbouring Lithuania and Ukraine. The normal working week runs Monday to Friday, which helps when coordinating with colleagues elsewhere in the EU.
