THE VALUE OF WORK IN COMPARISON WITH OTHER VALUES

Abstract

Basing my remarks on the empirical results gathered by the Polish General Social Survey the European Social Survey and other nationwide studies I attempt to establish Poles’ attitudes to work today. On the one hand I compare those attitudes with attitudes of workers in other countries, and on the other, I analyse how the attitude to work has changed in Poland over the years. A rather surprising finding is that Poland is among those European states, in which work is considered to be among the highest values. At the same time, again surprisingly, Poles see themselves among those who have little influence when it comes to deciding about their working hours, the organisation of the working day. Other bad news is that Poles see themselves as “very unlikely to find employment in the same trade with another employer”. Analysing these findings from the perspective of the recent changes in market economies (decline of the welfare state) which have brought about an increase in uncertainty and fear - one might draw the conclusion that Poland belongs to the communities at “increased risk”.
