Poland’s labour market showed no sign of recovery in June 2026, as year-on-year employment growth remained unchanged at -0.9%, matching May’s reading. The June figure, released on 20 July 2026, indicates that the decline in employment compared with the same month a year earlier has stabilized but not improved.
The data, measured on a year-over-year basis, confirm that the negative momentum seen in May has persisted into June. The “actual” figure for June reflects the change versus June of the previous year, while the “previous” figure for May was calculated against May a year earlier; both stand at -0.9%. This suggests that, despite no further deterioration between May and June, Poland’s job market continues to operate below last year’s levels, with no visible turnaround yet in the employment trend.
