In many countries, data about the economically inactive population attracts more and more attention, because this group is a potential source of labor supply. The article fo- cuses attention on the economically inactive in Poland. Since 1990, the share of economically inactive persons in the total population (15-64 years) remains at a high level. For young people the main causes of economic inactivity is education and training, family responsibilities, while in the case of the elderly illness, disability and retirement. This article addresses also the issues of impact posed by the economic inactivity.

The disabled people in Poland are that part of labour force that has not been appreciated enough. Despite the fact that in the recent years the number of the disabled Poles who found employment has risen, their employment rate is still rather low. The majority of them (83% in 2010) are absent on the job market. The aim of the paper is to investigate how gender, place of residence, education, age and disability severeness affect the economic inactivity of the disabled and what impact their gender, place of residence and disability severity had on the likelihood of the reason for the inactivity. The author used the Polish Central Statistical Office data concerning the 4th quarter of 2010. The data were analysed by means of the logistic regression model for the dependent dichotomous variable as well as the multinomial logistic regression model. The estimated parameters helped to determine the inactivity risk quotient in relation to economic activity. They also permitted to calculate the probability of the disabled people's economic inactivity due to a particular reason.

Between 2014 and 2016 the number of foreigners on the Polish labour market increased by over 300 per cent. They were mainly Ukrainian citizens taking up seasonal employment on the basis of the so-called ‘simplified system’. According to the literature, such a large increase in labour immigration in a short period of time may be an important factor in the growth of unemployment and the reduction of the employment rate of natives. The main purpose of this text is to show the correlation between the increase in the employment of foreigners in Poland and to determine whether or not this has had an impact on the deterioration of the state of the labour market. For this purpose, data from the Central Statistical Office and the Polish Ministry of Family, Labour and Social Policy were collected. As a result of our analysis, it was found that the significant increase in the presence of foreigners on the Polish labour market, which the country has faced in recent years, was not correlated with the rise in unemployment, the increase in the rate of economic inactivity and the availability of seasonal jobs. On this basis, we can state that the increase in the supply of foreigners on the Polish labour market, compared to other factors influencing it, was weak enough for the negative effects of the increased employment of foreigners to not occur.

The aim of this article is to analyse the determinants of economic activity and work among disabled persons. The individual data from the Polish Labour Force Survey was used for the logistic regression estimates. It appeared that the determinants of disabled persons’ participation in labour force and of the likelihood of being employed are not always convergent concerning the strength and direction. It regards to such covariates as: sex, age, disability, work experience, unemployment rate and the educational stage and profile of an individual. In contrast, being married is associated with similar likelihood of economic activity and employment.

Celem artykułu jest analiza determinant podejmowania przez osoby z orzeczoną niepełnosprawnością aktywności zawodowej i pracy na podstawie danych indywidualnych pochodzących z Badania Aktywności Ekonomicznej Ludności. Wykorzystując regresję logistyczną wykazano, że czynniki warunkujące aktywność zawodową osób niepełnosprawnych i ich szanse na zatrudnienie nie zawsze są zbieżne co do siły i kierunku. Jest tak w odniesieniu do płci, wieku, stopnia niepełnosprawności, stażu pracy, sytuacji na rynku pracy oraz poziomu i profilu wykształcenia. Natomiast bycie w związku małżeńskim kształtuje w podobny sposób zarówno szanse na aktywność zawodową, jak i na podejmowanie pracy przez niepełnosprawnych.
