About 2 thirds of respondents, 67.2%, support the deportation of Ukrainian men of draft age without legal work in Poland; against that is 23.4%. The IBRiS survey for “Rzeczpospolita” of August 7 shows the economical core of the dispute: legal employment, contributions and control of the grey zone.
Legal work is the axis of the dispute
According to Bankier.pl for PAP, the proposal of PiS concerning the expulsion of Ukrainian men without legal employment gained the approval of most respondents. W IBRiS poll for “Rzeczpospolita” 67.2% of respondents replied yes and 23.4% were against. In the economy, the point is simple: legal work gives contributions, taxes and control. The grey region is taking your tools.
It's not about a password aimed at nationality. It's about labour marketplace rules. If the Polish entrepreneur is to compete reasonably and the Polish worker is not to be pushed by fictional contracts and informal mediation, the state must know who works, where he works and under what conditions. Without it, they pay the honest.
Grey region hits Polish interest
The Law and Justice organization announced that the deportation would include Ukrainian men of draft age who do not work legally in Poland. Interia besides informed about the thought of deportation centres, and Polsat News reported the announcement of the abroad monitoring system. In the economical dimension, this is not a side detail. This is simply a question of the ability of the state to defend the legal labour market.
We've already written that Illegal employment of foreigners requires protection of the Polish labour market. Control can't be paper. If the administration sees only those who have reported a stay but cannot effectively combine work data, contributions and residence decisions, a gap arises. This is where middlemen and dishonest employers gain money, and they lose average businesses.
Numbers show that precision is needed
“Rzeczpospolita” points out that there is no single place in Poland with full current data about foreigners. According to ZUS data cited by the diary at the end of June, over 901,000 Ukrainian citizens paid insurance premiums. It's a immense group of legally working people. That's why politics must be good, not blind.
This fact is crucial for the Polish economy. Power cannot pretend that all Ukrainian in Poland is simply a problem due to the fact that it is not true. Nor can he pretend that the presence of hundreds of thousands of legal workers alone relieves the state of hard pursuit of the grey zone. Discussion on Ukrainian work in Poland must go beyond the slogan and go down to control contributions, contracts and costs to the taxpayer.
Deportation as a tool, not a ritual
Deportation cannot be a show-off camera ritual. It is intended to be a tool of the state towards persons who do not meet the conditions of residence or operate outside the law. This requires procedures, evidence and administrative decisions resistant to judicial verification. Otherwise, it ends at conferences, not fine.
In parallel, you gotta hit those who live in the grey zone. punishment for an worker is simply a convenient but incomplete solution. If the intermediary brings people to work without legal conditions and the entrepreneur builds an advantage in circumventing the law, then the state has a work to go there too. The national economy will not defend itself with slogans. He'll defend himself by enforcing the rules.
What does it mean for the wallet of Poles
The stake for Poles is very mundane: contributions to the Social safety Office, taxation revenues, fair competition between companies, social safety and wage pressures. Who works legally contributes to the system. Who functions outside him leaves the bill to others. In a serious country, this difference must have consequences.
The 67.2 percent consequence is so a informing to economical and political elites. Poles do not reject the work of foreigners. Poles reject the model in which hospitality is mixed with mess, and honest companies are to compete with the informal market. Helping Ukraine in the war with Russia does not exempt Warsaw from the work to defender the Polish labour market. Sovereignty starts with simple things: border, right of residence and legal salary.
