  • Group description
    Data on economic activity of population aged 15 years and more were prepared on the basis of the sample Labour Force Survey (LFS) carried out quarterly since May 1992 and improved in accordance with the Eurostat recommendations. The survey covers persons who are members of the household selected to the survey. The survey subject is the situation concerning economic activity of the population, i.e. the fact of performing work, being unemployed or economically inactive during the reference week. From the 1st quarter of 2003 to the 2nd quarter of 2012, the data on the Polish population (population aged 15 years and more) coming from the balances prepared on the basis of the National Census of Population and Housing 2002 were used for generalization of the results, that is why the LFS data are not completely comparable to the data for the previous years. Since the 3rd quarter of 2012, the generalization of the survey results onto the overall population has been done with the use of data coming from the balances compiled on the basis of the National Census of Population and Housing 2011. Moreover, there were introduced methodological changes: since the 3rd quarter of 2012, from the survey range have been excluded persons staying outside the household for 12 months or longer; until the 2nd quarter of 2012 - longer than 3 months. Thus, the LFS data since the 3rd quarter of 2012 onwards are not fully comparable with the results from the previous periods. The survey data for the period: between the 1st quarter of 2010 and the 2nd quarter of 2012 were recalculated according to the new methodology and the new basis of the results generalization. Data presented by age groups have been calculated on the basis of the exact date of birth, until the first quarter of 2006 - excluding persons aged 15 years - they were presented according to the year of birth. In some tables, particular components do not sum up to the figures given in the "Total" items due to the computer rounding up. Figures below 5 thousand are not presented because of high random error of sample. Quarterly data - concern population aged 15 years and more according to the actual place of residence.
  • Subgroup description
    Among the employed are included all persons aged 15 and more who during the reference week: 1) performed for at least one hour any work generating pay or income, i.e. were employed as a paid employees, worked on their own (or leased) agricultural farm, or conducted their own economic activity outside agriculture, assisted (without pay) in work on family agricultural farm or in conducting family economic activity outside agriculture, 2) had work but did not perform it: a) due to sickness, maternity leave or vacation, b) due to other reasons, but the break in employment: - did not exceed 3 months, - exceeded 3 months, but these persons were paid employees and during that period received at least 50% of the hitherto remuneration (since the 1st quarter of 2006). In accordance with the international standards, among the employed were also included apprentices who entered into occupational training or occupational preparation contract with a private or public employer, if they received remuneration. Due to the methodological assumptions the number of the employed obtained from the LFS does not comprise some categories of persons, who are considered as employed in the establishment survey, e.g.: a) employees living in lodging houses for workers, b) employees working abroad for their Polish employers. In the category of the employed, a distinction was made between full-time workers and part-time workers. This category is calculated on the basis of respondent's declaration related to the main job. The presented data concerning the kind of activity of the main job (economic sections) have been compiled on the basis of the Polish Classification of Activities (PKD), obligatory since the 1st quarter of 2000 (often modified), more significant modifications: - PKD 2004 (obligatory since the 1st quarter of 2005) - PKD 2007 (obligatory since the 1st quarter of 2008).
