Jobs boom for car-part companies
The country's car components production sector should see employment rise by 8,000 to 10,000 new jobs in 2005.
The Polish Automotive Industry Chamber (PIM) says they have been in contact with a number of international companies that are developing plans to expand.
PIM's director, Rafał Orłowski says: "The prospects for this year are very good. Several foreign firms including Opel Polska, Voss and Hearing have all indicated they will increase existing production."
Figures from the Central Statistical Office (GUS) show employment in the Polish automotive industry was running at 89,000 after the first three quarters of 2004, representing a near 10 percent year-on-year rise.
A report from Polish car- industry analysts Samar says: "The biggest rise in employment figures was seen at suppliers of automotive components, adding 6,200 jobs, and makers of vehicles and engines, with 2,100 new jobs coming on line."
