Depression Drains the Polish Economy

Nearly 67 percent of adult Poles experience symptoms most commonly associated with depression, according to a recently published study. In an identical survey conducted a year earlier, the percentage of Poles experiencing such symptoms reached almost 73 percent. Therefore, it can be seen that the situation is slightly better, but still bad, which also affects the economy.

Based on the report's authors' calculations, depression in Poland results in losses of at least PLN 2.8 billion, just in sick leave costs. Experts commenting on the results also indicate that the main reason for this situation is inflation, and the next is the atmosphere in the workplace.
