Wojciech Saługa (born 27 March 1969 in Jaworzno) is a Polish economist and politician.
A graduate of the Kraków University of Economics, Saługa worked at ING Bank Śląski between 1994 to 2002.[1] At the same time, Saługa was involved in municipal politics, elected as an alderman to the Jaworzno City Council between 1998 to 2002, and later served as the town's deputy mayor between 2002 to 2004.[1] He subsequently took a position in the Senate following a successful by-election in 2004 for Sosnowiec as a Civic Platform candidate. He was elected to the Sejm representing the Sosnowiec constituency in the 2005 parliamentary election, winning reelection again in 2007 and 2011.[1] Saługa resigned from the Sejm in December 2014.[2]
In December 2014, Saługa was elected as the seventh Marshal of Silesia by the Civic Platform, Polish People's Party and Democratic Left Alliance coalition within the Silesian Regional Assembly, becoming the chief executive of the province.[3] As the head of the province's executive board, Saługa invited the Silesian Autonomy Movement to join the board's coalition in June 2015.[4]
