The main purpose of the paper was to defi ne the determinants of professional activity of working age population. The professional activity of the investigated population, taking into account selected demographic features, namely gender, age, place of residence, were discussed in the article. The inquiry research was carried out in 2013 on the area of the Wielkopolskie voivodeship on 386 people at production age. In addition to the primary data, the secondary data originating from the Social Security Office and Eurostat were used. The conducted research proves that the vast majority of the inquired was professionally active. Among the professionally active, the employed under a contract of employment in full-time employment dominated. Only few of the inquired undertook an additional job. Among women, the main reason for increase of professional activity was obtaining low income from the basic source of income. The investigated women obtained lower incomes than the men.

Głównym celem artykułu jest określenie czynników determinujących aktywność zawodową osób w wieku produkcyjnym. Omówiono w nim aktywność zawodową badanej populacji z uwzględnieniem wybranych cech demografi cznych, a mianowicie płci, wieku i miejsca zamieszkania. Badania ankietowe przeprowadzono w 2013 r. na terenie województwa wielkopolskiego wśród 386 osób w wieku produkcyjnym. Oprócz danych pierwotnych w publikacji wykorzystano dane wtórne pochodzące z GUS i Eurostat. Z przeprowadzonych badań wynika, że zdecydowana większość respondentów była aktywna zawodowo. Wśród osób aktywnych zawodowo dominowali ankietowani zatrudnieni na podstawie umowy o pracę w pełnym wymiarze czasu pracy. Niewielu ankietowanych podejmowało dodatkową pracę. Wśród kobiet główną przyczyną zwiększenia aktywności zawodowej było osiąganie niskiego dochodu z podstawowego źródła utrzymania, a wśród mężczyzn rozwój zawodowy. Badane kobiety osiągały niższe dochody aniżeli mężczyźni.

Objectives The aim of this study was to estimate indirect costs associated with losses in productivity due to sickness absence among registered workers in Poland. Material and Methods Data on sick leave durations in 2013 was obtained from the Social Insurance Institution (SII) (Zakład Ubezpieczeń Społecznych – ZUS). Based on the number of assumptions, this data was used for calculating absence durations. The costs of lost productivity were estimated on the basis of the measure of gross value added. Results Estimated losses in productivity due to absenteeism in 2013 together accounted for 4.33% of gross domestic product (GDP) (17.09 billion euro). In the female population, the total value of losses amounted to 9.66 billion euro, but excluding the costs of pregnancy, childbirth, and puerperium (2.96 billion euro), it was 6.7 billion euro. In the male population, the loss amounted to 7.43 billion euro. The highest overall costs of sickness absence based on age were found in the age group of 30–39 years (5.14 billion euro, including pregnancy, childbirth, and puerperium – 1.474 billion euro; respiratory diseases – 0.632 billion euro, injuries and poisonings – 0.62 billion euro). In the group of people aged > 40 years, the highest cost was generated by bone-muscular diseases (1.553 billion euro) and injuries and poisoning (1.251 billion euro). Higher losses in the productivity of women in addition to pregnancy, childbirth, and puerperium were due to mental and behavioral disorders (0.71 billion euro), diseases of the genitourinary system (0.38 billion euro), and neoplasms (0.35 billion euro). At the same time, in men, compared to women, we observed higher losses due to injuries and poisoning (1.65 billion euro), and diseases of musculoskeletal (1.26 billion euro), nervous (0.79 billion euro), circulatory (0.65 billion euro), and digestive (0.41 billion euro) systems. Conclusions Improvement and further development of effective strategies for prevention of complications of pregnancy and chronic diseases in the workplace are necessary. Policies aimed at reduction of sickness absence could potentially increase prosperity and the socioeconomic situation in Poland. Int J Occup Med Environ Health 2017;30(6):917–932

The article analyses changes in total population and population in working age, as opposed to changes in the number of the employed and the scale of unemployment in Lower Silesian Voivodeship. Changes in demographic structures and the level of both employment and unemployment were also analysed in consideration of spatial context, in reference to gminas of the voivodeship. What is more, the article aims at determining the correlation/interdependency between demographic changes resulting from depopulation process and changes in the scope of number of employed and unemployed in the local labour markets.

W artykule przeanalizowano zmiany liczby ludności ogółem oraz w wieku produkcyjnym w województwie dolnośląskim na tle zmian liczby pracujących i skali bezrobocia. Zmiany struktur demograficznych oraz poziomu zatrudnienia i bezrobocia zostały rozpatrzone także w kontekście przestrzennym, w układzie gmin województwa. Ponadto podjęto próbę określenia współzależności pomiędzy zmianami demograficznymi, będącymi konsekwencją procesu depopulacji a przemianami w zakresie liczby pracujących i bezrobotnych na lokalnych rynkach pracy województwa dolnośląskiego.
