Opinions about Reform of the State Labour Inspection
Half the people surveyed thought that the State Labour Inspection should gain the right to substitute employment contracts for the following common contracts: mandate contracts, contracts for specific work and business-to-business contracts. Over a quarter of respondents were of the opposite opinion (27%), while a large proportion – more than one in five – had no particular opinion on the matter (23%).

More frequent opponents of this idea were people with higher education (39%), those with the highest per capita income (46%), residents of the biggest towns and cities (35%) and those working in the private sector (excluding agriculture) (35%). In terms of social and occupational groupings, relatively more opposition was expressed by self-employed people (45%), white-collar and administrative workers (41%) and the group of managers and specialists with higher education (40%).
More on this subject in the CBOS report.
This ‘Current Events and Problems’ survey (431) was conducted using a mixed-mode procedure on a representative sample of named adult residents of Poland, randomly selected from the National Identity Number (PESEL) register. Respondents independently selected one of the following methods: Computer Assisted Personal Interview (CAPI); Computer Assisted Telephone Interview (CATI), respondents receiving researchers’ telephone numbers in an introductory letter from CBOS; Computer Assisted Web Interview (CAWI), where respondents filled in the online questionnaire independently, gaining access by means of a login and password provided in an introductory letter from CBOS. In all three cases the questionnaire had the same structure and comprised the same questions. The survey was carried out between 5 – 15 March 2026 inclusive on a sample of 1012 people (64.4% using the CAPI method, 20.2% CATI and 15.4% CAWI). CBOS has been conducting statutory research using the above procedure since May 2020, stating in each case the percentage of personal, telephone and internet interviews.
