stanowisk

Stanowisk is the genitive plural form of the Polish noun stanowisko. Stanowisko can denote a job position or post within an organization, as well as a physical workstation or place where someone works. The form stanowisk is used in contexts that require the genitive plural, such as counting, stating quantities, or describing relationships between things, for example: pięć stanowisk do obsadzenia (five positions to be filled) and braki stanowisk (shortages of positions).

In ordinary language, the nominative plural is stanowiska, which you would use when the noun is the subject or the object in a sentence, for example: firmy tworzą nowe stanowiska pracy. The genitive plural stanowisk is used after numerals and in phrases that require the genitive, such as liczba stanowisk pracy w firmie (the number of job positions in the company) or braki stanowisk (shortages of positions).

Stanowisko can also refer to a workstation or place of work, as in stanowisko pracy or stanowisko komputerowe. In this sense, plural forms follow the same pattern: stanowiska pracy (workstations) with the genitive plural stanowisk appearing in phrases like liczba stanowisk pracy. The term is common in administrative, HR, and economic texts, especially when discussing employment, staffing, or capacity.
