19 % of Poles fear job loss

The newest research by Work Service shows that 19 percent of Poles are afraid of loosing their jobs. According to experts this problem is partly due to the lack of mobility of Polish employees, in other words the lack of incentive to move from place to place for work. The unemployment in the eastern regions is higher than in whole Poland. This is because of the lower amount of investments in these areas and results in fewer work places available and a higher percentage of unemployment. As much as 19 percent of Poles fear job loss, mostly in central Poland, where 30 percent experiences this insecurity, whereas in the western regions it is only one in ten persons. Workers in south-western regions are most sure about their jobs (91 percent) and in northern regions (89 percent). Most job offers will be in western Poland. There almost 50 percent of firms plan a recruitment in the following months, in central Europe 26 percent of comapnies declare this willingness  and in eastern parts only 13 percent.
