Summary/Abstract: This article aims to identify the impact of labour market variables on fertility and family decision‑making in Poland. The paper begins with a general overview of an effect of the increased labour market participation of women on family formation. The second section briefly examines the influence of access to the labour market, high unemployment, labour migration and lower quality jobs on the family. Next, the author discusses conditions for work and family reconciliation in Poland (working hours, flexible forms of employment, full or part-time work). The article concludes with a brief information on how Poles perceive potential obstacles to parenthood related to the labour market.
