Never before have so many people worked in Poland, according to the latest LFS data. Andrzej Kubisiak, deputy director of the Polish Economic Institute, points out that in the third quarter of 2021 the number of employees exceeded 16.8 million people, and the total professional activity rate reached 58.2 percent. However, in the case of people of working age, it was 79.9 percent. Both values were the highest in the history of measurements.
"LFS covers Polish citizens, so if the statistics include foreigners, then only long-term citizens with citizenship or the right to long-term stay," Andrzej Kubisiak pointed at Twitter.
The latest data confirmed earlier Eurostat estimates. They showed that at the end of the third quarter of 2021, the number of employees in Poland reached 16.77 million people.
