Why do Polish employees want to come to Great Britain?
In order to understand where the economic emigration of Poles comes from we have to compare the standard of living of an average employee in Poland and Great Britain. It is difficult for an employee in Poland to meet the most urgent needs when the minimum salary equals GBP 150.00 monthly. Buying a car or a house on hire purchase is almost impossible. Whereas, the minimal salary in Great Britain supported by inborn thriftiness of Poles not only enable them to live on the ordinary level but also to save money and buy a car or repay the mortgage instalments.
Are the Poles able to manage the work standards of Western Europe?
Times have long passed when Poland was situated in the block of communist countries. The high-quality standards are being implemented in Polish companies. The efficiency is increasing and the new technologies are used introduced to the industrial sectors. The employees get acquainted with the work methodology from Western Europe, they increase their skills by training, they achieve excellent results. However, the Pole's salary is still only 20% of an average employee's salary in Great Britain while the prices are similar.
Why should I select an employee from Eastern Europe?
There are many reasons why the employees from the new member states of the European Union prove useful in Great Britain and match well into the British community. Polish employees with appropriate qualification corresponding with European standards want to have salary at European level. Being offered a job in Great Britain they repay their employer showing respect and working hard which is reflected in increased efficiency and eagerly performed duties.
