Social assistance at domicile refers to the assistance given to the population in their place of residence by social welfare centre. Estimates are based on the Central Collection of the National Social Assistance Monitoring System, managed by the Ministry of Family, Labour and Social Policy, and contains information on benefits and beneficiaries - households and their members as well as homeless people. The dataset includes information collected during a community interview conducted by the workers of local social welfare centres. In all sub-groups of the social assistance at domicile, the basic cross-section was adopted: below income criterion and above income criterion. The population below income criterion means that the income per person in family or the income per single person is not higher than the criterion for providing benefit in cash set out in the Act on Social Assistance. This criterion in the years 2008 - 2011 and until 30 September 2012 was PLN 351 per person in the family, and PLN 477 per person persons living alone and on his own. From 1 October 2012 to 30 September 2015, the criterion was 456 PLN and 542 PLN respectively, and from October 1, 2015, PLN 514 and PLN 634 accordingly. The criterion of higher income applies to benefits provided free of charge as the part of the Food Aid Operational Program 2014-2020 and in accordance with the rules of payment for care services established by local government. Due to rounding of data estimated at the municipal level, in some cases the sums of subtotals may differ from the figures given in "total".
