The paper presents the quantitative changes that have occurred in employment among the rural population of Opole Voivodship after Polish accession to the European Union - over the years 2006-2010. Determination of these changes was possible because in 2006 and in 2010 there had been conducted quantitative research on the same sample group and with usage of the same research method. The comparative analysis of results of the research proved that within four years both the number of people working permanently in Poland and working abroad have changed. The results also indicated significant differences in the trends of changes between the two groups of the population living in Opole Voivodship - among the autochthon population who have the Polish and German citizenship and among non-autochthonous population who have only Polish citizenship.

In view of the challenges faced by the Polish labour market and the growing role of foreign labour force, it seems to be necessary to verify the factors stimulating and hindering the use of foreign workers. This article aims to present the factors from the perspective of employers and employees. Establishment of incentives for employment and impede the use of foreign labour force is crucial in the perspective that may appear on the Polish labour market. Already is observed a lack of manpower in certain industries and occupations (e.g. construction, agriculture), which is related to one side of the international migration of native labour force, on the other by mismatch of skills of Polish workers to labor market needs. The article uses the results of studies conducted in the Opole Voivodeship among employers of foreigners and among foreign workers. Employers as barriers of employment of foreigners pointed formal and legal conditions. However, for foreigners the biggest hurdle was the lack of knowledge of Polish language. Among the demands of changes that may facilitate the use of foreign workers, employer pointed reduce of formality and foreigners have mentioned whiling away the time needed for obtaining visa.

Polish legislator has defined social employment as providing certain categories of people who are threatened or affected by social exclusion (e.g. unemployment, homeless or addicted) with some opportunities to either participate in workshops that are run in centres for social integration clubs or take up supported employment. Social employment understood in this way is to aim at social reintegration that leads to restoring and maintaining the skills to participate in the life of a particular local community, and to perform social roles in one's place of work and domicile. In addition, social employment is supposed to result in vocational reintegration that leads to restoring the abilities to provide work on the labour market. The legal institution in question is, therefore, linked to a new meaning of employment that goes beyond the Polish Labour Code provisions. As it has been agreed, work is not only a source of income but it also may help one's recovery of employability and self-confidence.

The goal of the paper is to present spatial diversity in the use of flexible forms of employment with special emphasis on part-time work among women and men aged 50+ in the European Union. Demographic changes, including the ageing of the EU population, show the necessity of rationally utilizing available labour resources. Because the level of occupational activity is declining with age, while the share of people aged 50+ in the population is growing, the possibility of doing part-time work that allows reconciliation between occupational life and non-occupational life seems important. This form of employment can also constitute an important transitional stage between occupational activity and retirement. The analyses presented in the paper are based on data from Eurostat and include the years between 2003 and 2017. The conducted studies show significant differences in the utilization of part-time work in EU countries especially when age and gender are taken into consideration.

Unique knowledge, reinforced by organisational experience and combined with resources and technologies, forms the competence of organisations, thereby determining the possibility of market success. The need to ensure it in the context of inﬂuencing the employment level of a population shifts attention from external factors to the internal properties of organisations as a prerequisite for achieving high performance levels. The status of organisations of different business groups in terms of their impact on employment in Ukraine is deﬁned in the following pages of this article. The inexpediency of considering the indicators of the number of organisations in Ukraine and the intensity of their creation as a factor of employment growth was substantiated, since, despite the absolute quantitative advantage of small organisations (95.2%), it is medium-sized organisations that occupy the leading positions in providing employment in Ukraine (47%). It is noted that the higher level of proﬁtability of large and medium-sized organisations, as an indicator of ﬁnancial success, can be associated with a wider list of available competencies, in particular, those that are part of the synergistic component of an organisation’s competence and which provide advantages that are almost unreproducible by competitors, and thus, market leadership positions. The complexity of the development of such competencies among small businesses, which should focus on the competencies of a key component, is substantiated. Using the component will open access to new knowledge, experience, methods of managing resources, and business processes. The logical conclusion manifest itself in the importance of developing competent organisations capable of: achieving high ﬁnancial results; creating jobs with a competitive level of pay; and contributing to the balance of the labour market. The identiﬁed disparities in labour supply and demand indicators exacerbate the problem of their balance along with ensuring productive employment, which is often caused by the professional and qualiﬁcation mismatch of employees with employers’ current requirements and their incompetence in certain areas of activity. This is the reason for directing research to ﬁnd ways to develop competent organisations capable of attracting employees with a wide range of knowledge, a willingness to learn, and who are able to adapt to changes in exchange for decent remuneration. A distinctive feature of this study is the consideration of the trends of the functioning of organisations not only from the standpoint of inﬂuence on the level of employment in Ukraine, but also as evidence of the manifestation of a certain level of competence, which will become the basis for the development of its components in order to ensure the effective operation of organisations on the market.

Fighting unemployment in the EU has been and still is the most serious challenge to economic policy. Poland’s entry into the EU meant not only the opening of European labour markets to Poles, but also significant transformations that made our market more flexible and which have helped alleviate the effects of the global financial crisis. The new situation is a new challenge with regards to increasing productivity and the ability of the economy to create new jobs. Unfortunately, apart from the positive effects of the transformation, unfavorable phenomena have emerged including the too-frequent use of fi xed-term contracts by employers. This unfavorable phenomenon lessens an employer’s motivation to invest in an employee and to improve his or her qualifi cations and in the longer term worsens the socio-economic situation. The author of this article has attempted to assess the functioning of the labour market, taking into account the years 2012–2016. The choice of this particular period is directly related to the pace of the economic changes that took place at that time and the incubation of new, unidentified problems such as the following; the impact of EU funds on increasing the competitiveness of employers in the employment process and the phenomenon of the economic and financial recession, which at the turn of caused a signifi cant rise in unemployment and a decrease in employment.

Purpose - The current HDI has a limited capacity to reflect the human condition and country rankings in an accurate way. In addition, the main critiques on the HDI suggest that it uses very few or perhaps the wrong indicators in measuring human development levels in countries. This paper aims to investigate whether the inclusion of employment as a criterion in the HDI would yield a different ranking of nations. Design/methodology/approach - In this study, estimates of the proposed Employment-adjusted Human Development Index (E-HDI) are provided for seventy-seven countries for the 2000-2007 period, and comparisons are made both for changes in the human development index (HDI) and rankings over time in each country and for differences between the E-HDI and the UNDP’s HDI across countries. Findings - The experience of a relatively large number of 77 sample countries has offered promising results for the path to improve the current status of the HDI, and hence, to overcome its weakness in terms of ranking of countries. The additional indicator, i.e. employment, improves the explanatory power of the HDI and makes significant contributions to its reliability. Research limitations/implications - The major limitation of the present study has been the lack of data for a number of the human development indicators for the rest of the countries in the world. Practical implications - The employment-adjusted index has great potential to make the HDI more operational. Social implications - By means of E-HDI, the human development performance of the countries can be better evaluated and compared with other countries by using additional information obtained from the employment position of their citizens. Originality/value - This will be the first paper in the literature that incorporates employment into the HDI..

The labour market in Poland has undergone significant transformations over the past two decades. The observed changes have been influenced by various factors related to, among other things, the possibility of free movement of the population resulting from membership of EU structures, demographic changes, technological changes, and the automation and robotisation of production processes. Demographic change is becoming a significant challenge, highlighting the shortage of workers with different qualifications and competencies in the labour market in various sectors of the national economy. This paper aims to indicate to what extent Ukrainian citizens can fill the gaps in Poland’s emerging labour market. To that end, a survey was conducted in the Qualtrics programme in May-June 2022 among Ukrainian citizens who arrived in Poland before 24th February 2022, i.e., before the outbreak of the war and who were registered in the Gremi Personal database. This particular company provides support connected to employment for Ukrainians. Due to the non-probabilistic sampling technique, the results cannot be generalised with regard to the entire population. To analyse the results, descriptive statistics were used to examine the population structure and determine the significance of the characteristics studied and the correlation between them. The research shows that labour shortages in Poland’s labour market can be compensated to some extent by employing migrants from, for example, Ukraine. The commencement of the proper research was preceded by the preparation of a pilot study and the collection and analysis of statistical data related to the situation on the Polish labour market, taking into account the level and structure of employment and an indication of shortages in the labour market when the research was prepared, and the fact that complete statistical data ended in 2020, hence the decision to include this research period in the analyses.

Summary In this paper, we aim to present numerical data shedding light on the employment challenges in Haryana, emphasizing the issues of elevated youth unemployment, a diminished labour force participation rate, and a low worker-population ratio. Material and methods The insights are drawn from unit-level data gathered in periodic labour force surveys. Results The study underscores that Haryana's labour force participation rate is notably lower compared to neighbouring states, the national average, and global standards. Women bear a significant burden, experiencing remarkably low labour force participation rates compared to males. The situation is exacerbated for young individuals and those with higher education. Despite a positive note in the declining unemployment rate from 9.2% to 6.5% between 2018-19 and 2019-20, there remains a connection between higher educational attainment and increased unemployment, indicating a scarcity of opportunities for educated employment. Conclusions The research highlights Haryana's low LFPR, notably below neighboring states, the national average, and global norms.

The presented article is an attempt to answer the question about the legal character of pastoral work of parish priests and parish assistants in the light of the polish law. Analysis of labour legislations, social insurance, current tax regulations and civil law leads to conclusion that priestly ministry cannot be classified as employment contract or any other form of employment. This sort of ministry can’t be listed in any known type of legal agreement. In such a case contractus innominatus (nameless contract) should be applied to the clerical ministry. Polish law permits the use of contractus innominatus. The content of such contracts, within the boarders determined by the absolutely obligatory norms, can be freely drawn up by the parties.

Aim Caste studies conducted among Muslims in India generally focus on establishing the existence of caste system among Muslims but they seldom talk about different types of oppression and inequalities faced byMuslim women.This empirical study exploreshow gender and caste identities and their mutual intersectionality impact education,occupation and income choices and actual attainments of Muslim women. Methods This study is part of a larger study conducted among Muslims of Kashmir in India.Primary datawas collected from 704 eligible respondents (Male=392, Female=312) using mixed methods. Three layers of ‘caste like’ and ‘caste’ groups existing in the research area are identified and gender situation within these groups are comparatively examined. Results Each of the ‘caste like’ and ‘caste’ groupshas patriarchal caste capital.Higher professions within the government and private services are largely acquired by upper caste male Muslims or other male and female Muslims having rich cultural and social capital. There is preponderance of lower caste male Muslims in low income self-employment but lower caste Muslim females seldom find say in family based business and compelled to join low paid private jobs. More than fifty percent educated Muslim females are unemployed. Conclusion Although patriarchy is the general rule here, not all women face discrimination and inequality in the same way. Upper caste Muslim women often witness so called benevolent restriction of choices whereas lower caste women are the most excluded and marginalised section of the society who face double discrimination due to patriarchy and interwoven caste positions which severely impacts their educational as well as employment choices and attainments.

Many universities in the Czech Republic lack students´ interest in the studies of natural science. That is why all the universities have to come up with an idea how to popularize these scientific fields to attract potential university applicants. One of the ways of achieving that is to create educational centres, which are able, thanks to these programmes, to approach students of primary and secondary schools and show them the natural sciences. The presented example of one particular educational centre (Bioskop Masaryk University, Brno, the Czech Republic) evaluates the success rate of their activities while using written questionnaire survey among the visitors of the programmes (students of primary and secondary schools as well as their pedagogues). The results have shown that thanks to these activities the centre created quality conditions for popularization of natural sciences. The results have also proven the centre´s ability to present natural sciences in an attractive and entertaining way to students of elementary and secondary schools. These students expressed their interest in the study of natural sciences and they would like to visit the centre again.
