Work prospects by industry
According to CEDEFOP's forecast, the sectors with the fastest job growth in Poland would be oil and gas, as well as household goods repair. The human health operations, as well as the accommodation and catering industries, will see the most job growth.
CEDEFOP's projection is for the years up to 2030. It took into account global economic development until May 2019. In 2019, the European economy had been in a continuous growth phase for the seventh year in a row. Short-term economic impact has been created by the Coronavirus pandemic and subsequent lockdowns, but long-term factors that will impact job prospects in European countries, such as ageing populations, increased use of automation / artificial intelligence, globalization, resource scarcity, and so on, will continue to be influential.
