новий сайт  (66) (1).png The Gremi Personal Analytics Centre analysed data from GUS and examined how employment is changing across key sectors of the Polish economy.

Our research shows that demand for workers remains strongest in sectors oriented towards the domestic market:

  • HoReCa (+2.1%);
  • food industry (+0.56%);
  • retail trade (+0.4%);
  • logistics (+0.3%).

These are the sectors currently generating the greatest demand for foreign workers.

At the same time, industry continues to shed staff. The steepest cuts have been recorded in furniture manufacturing (-3.4% since the start of the year) and the automotive sector (-3.3%).

"Despite the difficult situation in certain sectors, domestic demand continues to sustain employment in retail, logistics, HoReCa and the food industry. These sectors remain the primary employers of foreign workers," comments Gremi Personal founder Yevheniy Kirichenko.
