Description
Summary:This paper is aimed to analyze the size of the labor force in Poland, according to the 2011 Population Census and Labor Force Survey at the same time. These data are not consistent, an attempt is made to determine the size and causes of this inconsistency. The number of economically active and working people, as well as two relative measures: activity and employment rates were analyzed. A test of significance of differences between two parameters was used in comparisons. The absolute and relative differences between the same data from two sources were also calculated. All results were considered in total and by gender, age, level of education and place of residence divided into urban and rural areas, and by voivodships.
