Abstract

The demographic changes occurring in Poland since the 1980s clearly show the aging of the population on which fertility, mortality and migration have a huge impact. This phenomenon is a serious demographic and socio‑economic problem because it may lead to many adverse consequences, i.e. an increase in public expenditure, policy changes regarding the functioning of social security, health and education, increased demand for care services, a decrease in pension benefits and social benefits, the elongation of the retirement age, as well as an increase in unemployment and mass migration. In the study, we will carry out a spatial analysis of the demographic potential and the level of unemployment in Poland. In order to verify the hypothesis that the aging process of socjety negatively affects the level of unemployment, the relationship between the level of unemployment and the demographic potential in Poland in 2002, 2008 and 2014 will be examined.
