Societe Generale notes...

  • We expect the unemployment rate to remain unchanged in February.

  • Our forecast is in line with market expectations and labour ministry data.

  • According to the Polish labour ministry,95,100 job offers were reported in February, representing 30% growth mom. 

  • Also, the number of unemployed people was only 1,000 higher than in January and 336,000 lower than a year ago. 

  • The ministry is supporting jobseekers and plans to spend PLN5.5bn this year on active labour market policy programmes for young people, parents and the elderly (50+).

  • We expect the unemployment rate to be close to 10.0% at the end of 2015.
