NBP: 78% of Ukrainians immigrants look for work in Poland
According to a report from the National Bank of Poland (NBP), 78% of Ukrainian immigrants in Poland are either working or seeking employment, with work being the primary source of income for most. Despite their strong participation in the labor market, unemployment remains higher among refugees than in Poland's overall economy. The report also highlights that 90% of Ukrainian children attend Polish schools, with language barriers and lack of social connections being the main challenges. Additionally, 40% of Ukrainian migrants send financial aid to relatives back home.
Regarding Belarusian migrants, 68% plan to stay in Poland long-term, with many having strong educational backgrounds, especially in IT and self-employment.
