Number of employees in the most affected sectors by COVID-19 pandemic in Poland 2020
The outbreak of coronavirus in Poland will significantly reduce labor demand. According the source, bankruptcies of companies, dismissals of employees, the need to take care of children due to closed educational institutions, and limited possibilities of remote work in some sectors have a direct impact on the labor market during the pandemic. In total, nearly 4.2 million people work in industries strongly exposed to the economic consequences of the lockdown. Of this figure, three million are employed, and just over one million are business owners and co-owners. More than half of the jobs at risk are in the trade.
