Poles Indifferent to AI’s Impact on Jobs
According to the latest “People at Work 2025” report, global employees express conflicting emotions about AI’s impact on their jobs, ranging from optimism to fear. While 30 percent of those who feel their jobs are easily replaceable are already seeking new employment, in Poland, the overall sentiment remains unusually indifferent.
Only 9 percent of Polish workers expect AI to support their work, 7 percent fear job loss, and 10 percent admit uncertainty about its impact. Among younger Poles (18–26), just 11 percent are optimistic, while 12 percent worry AI could replace them. Seniors (+55) feel the most secure – only 5 percent fear job loss, and 9 percent are hopeful.
White-collar workers in Poland are most aware of AI’s potential – 13 percent see it as an asset, but 10 percent fear redundancy. Globally, 24 percent of white-collar workers feel optimistic, with Egypt leading at 36 percent.
“AI evokes strong emotional responses. Addressing these emotions is key to unlocking AI’s true workplace potential,” Anna Barbachowska, HR Director at ADP Polska, said.
