You won't get a work permit to wash dishes, so forget about it.

I can tell you that foreigners in Poznan are working for as little as 5zl if they're illegally in Poland.

For dish washing you can get 3 to 4 zloty. Polish people working for example in a supermarket get 4 zl per hour. If you get such job, you will also earn 4zl, it does not depend on the nationality.

However if you work illegally, like maybe cleaning dishes or sth similar they may cheat you and they can give you much less, only because you are a foreigner. In my opinion do not expect more than 4 zl per hour. Should I menthion that you will not be able to live with this money? After 1 month you can get max 1000 zl and to rent a basic studio you need probably more than 1000 per month. So if you have to rent your own place to live, such salary will not allow you to live.

If you choose Poland just to work here, better think about other countries. If I can recomment, go to Belgium, where average salary, in bad jobs like cleaning, or in supermarket are 8-10 euro per hour. And yes, you can have a good life with this. You can then rent not just a room but an appartment and still have money to live and have fun. Also they have more and longer breaks during work, in Poland a break is only 15 min, but in Belgium even 1 hour. Good luck.

Rubbish.

Minimum wage will apply, so around 8zl. For an illegal immigrant, lower, but no less than 5 zloty an hour.

More rubbish.

Salaries in supermarkets are hovering about 1600zl a month at the minute, or around 10zl an hour.

I've never heard of someone washing dishes being able to rent their own flat in any country in Europe.

Belgium will pay 4-5 euro an hour to work illegally. And 1 hour breaks? You must be kidding.
