TRANSFORMATION OF SOCIAL AND PROFESSIONAL STRUCTURE OF POLISH POPULATION IN XXth CENTURY
Abstract
In the paper an attempt was undertaken to make a review of changes in populations structure
as a result of its differentiation from the point of view of employment. Considerations have been
limited to three following aspects of these transformation, and namely: intersectorial evolution,
changes of maintenance of the population and increasing professional activity of women. The
analysis is based on data taken from seven selected censuses (1921,1931, 1950, 1970, 1978, 1988)
and from three micro-censuses (1974, 1984, 1995).
The research made proved that fundamental trend in changes within professional structure
is continuous moving of the employees of the 1st and 2st sectors to the third one. Such a relative
regrouping makes that the share of service sector in general volume of employment grows larger.
Also the image of the Polands’ population in respect of the main source of maintenance underwent
some essential changes because of the move of population from the century to the towns and
because of increased number of persons who derive their means of maintenance mainly from
extra-agricultural sources.
One of principal features of modernisation is a growth of professional activity of women.
Distributions of the last as presented in the paper made us able to state that a pattern of constant
professional activity is still on force in Poland. In such a situation women in Poland do reconcile
their job with family duties.
So clearly outlined trends of changes do indicate however that Poland tends firmly towards
the group of economically highly developed countries.
