Warsaw (Puls Biznesu) – According to Poland’s central statistical office GUS, the unemployment rate in February amounted to 19.4 percent. In January, it was 19.5 percent. Last month, 3.1 m people stayed without a job. In February 2004, nearly 200,000 people more were unemployed.
‘This is good news although the unemployment is still high. But it is in winter, when the seasonal unemployment is the highest.
