Poland’s labour market showed no sign of improvement in May 2026, with employment growth remaining unchanged at a year‑on‑year decline of 0.9%, according to data updated on 22 June 2026. The indicator matches April 2026, when employment also fell 0.9% compared with the same month a year earlier.
The latest figures confirm that the pace of job losses has neither accelerated nor eased on an annual basis, signalling a period of stagnation after previous declines. On a year‑over‑year basis, both April and May 2026 indicate the same contraction in employment, suggesting that underlying labour market conditions have yet to turn the corner.
