A debate took place on news channel TVN this week looking at Poland and its immigration situation.According to Joanna Tyrowicz of the National Bank of Poland’s Economic
Institute and the University of Warsaw, there are a number of factors
involved.
“First of all, there is the difference in pay. Wages in Poland are higher than many other countries and this can make it an attractive option for employment,” she told the station. She went on to add there was also the networking factor. “I know someone who knows someone who is already there...”
She also stated “most immigrants, when asked how long they wish to stay, will reply ‘only a short period’. However, many end up staying longer than this.”
Piotr Arak of policy analyst news source Polityka Insight highlighted one of the country’s neighbours as a perfect example. “Due to the proximity of Ukraine, there are now a large number of immigrants trying to get jobs here,” he said.
“With today’s regulations, it’s quite easy to get qualifications there and then ply your trade here. It seems to me that this trend will only continue and it’s possible up to 2.5 million Ukrainian may eventually emigrate here.” (Source http://www. newpolandexpress.pl)
