Employees of labor offices across the country celebrate the Employee Day of Public Employment Services. Every year the minister responsible for labor meets during the conference with representatives of public employment services at all levels as well as with experts in the field of the labor market.This year due to the state of the COVID-19 epidemic the meeting was held in the form of a video conference. This years theme of the event was The labor market in a post-Covid reality - a perspective for Poland.With todays conference we commemorate the 102nd anniversary of the signing by the Head of State Jzef Pisudski of the Decree on the organization of state employment agencies and care for emigrants. It happened on January 27 1919. Today we celebrate the Public Employment Service Day- said Deputy Prime Minister Minister of Development Labor and Technology Jarosaw Gowin.The Polish labor market reacted relatively mildly to the restrictions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic which was supported on the one hand by the good condition of the economy including the labor market before the appearance of the coronavirus and on the other hand the actions taken by the government to protect jobs were of great importance. .The priority in the operation of public employment services is currently supporting employers - in particular the protection of existing jobs. Thanks to the active attitude of employees of labor offices and care for the local labor market despite the epidemic we can enjoy the low level of unemployment which at the end of 2020 was 6.2.Today I can say that employment offices have finally become LABOR offices not offices to alleviate the effects of unemployment. However I am aware that the level of unemployment will depend on the state of the economy in the coming months which will undoubtedly be influenced by the efficiency of the implementation by labor offices of aid packages prepared and implemented by the government- emphasized Jarosaw Gowin deputy prime minister minister of development labor and technology.And he addedWe are facing a new challenge which is the need to restore the Polish economy to the pre-vision pace of development and then using modern technologies to multiply this pace.In terms of instruments supervised by the Ministry of Labor support was granted to over 6.6 million jobs by the end of 2020 significantly reducing the scale of the impact of the crisis on the situation of enterprises and employees and thus on the situation of Polish households. The total amount of co-financing granted by poviat and voivodship labor offices exceeded PLN 28.3 billion.The role of work in the life of modern man is enormous it is a necessary condition of existence it is a determinant of a persons place in society and its lack is a source of difficulties and failures and causes social exclusion. So far the achievements of Polish employment services include thousands of people restored to the Polish labor market thousands of people with new qualifications or finally thousands of new one-person companies established thanks to the subsidies. I consider the balance of Polish employment services to be positive and today I would like to thank the employees of these services for this huge contribution to the good situation on the Polish labor market - said the Minister of Development Labor and Technology Jarosaw Gowin.The epidemic state announced in connection with the coronavirus was a challenge for all state administration services employers employees and the unemployed. Actions taken by employment services have kept unemployment levels low regularly falling - only subject to minor seasonal influences- said the Deputy Minister of Development Labor and Technology Iwona Michaek.
