Polish coal mine Bogdanka has announced that it will create over 300 jobs in Puchaczów near Lublin in 2018. The chairman of the company informed that the mine is financially well and is planning major investments. The company has recently received a concession for a new Ostrów field, meaning that it has secured its coal production for a period of almost 50 more years. Bogdanka as a mother company employs approximately 4,500 people, and as a group over 5,000.
