They highly appreciate such qualities of Ukrainian employees as quick adaptation (42%), hard work (34%), and the ability to quickly learn Polish (30%).

It is noted that every fourth entrepreneur appreciates employees from Ukraine for their experience, and every fifth for their modesty, creating a positive atmosphere and loyalty.

How has the attitude towards Ukrainian workers in Poland changed?


According to the company's representative Krzysztof Inglot, the deterioration of attitudes towards Ukrainians in society is a challenge for HR departments in organizations that employ or plan to employ foreigners. According to the study, this applies to as many as 43% of companies in Poland. Focusing on employee training and integration becomes a key task.

The analysis by industry shows that companies in the IT sector have the most positive attitude towards Ukrainian employees: 56% of respondents expressed a very positive or positive opinion. In industry, this figure is slightly lower at 6%.

We remind you! The Polish government proposes to change the conditions for granting temporary protection to refugees from Ukraine.
