Samozatrudnienie w Polsce — problemy definicyjne, dostępność danych i ich interpretacja
Self-employment in Poland — definitional problems, the availability of data and their interpretation

Summary/Abstract: The article gives an overview of the definitions of „self-employment” and „self-employed” used both by the Polish and international institutions. Authors present a great ambiguity of the terms used. Due to the growing role of self-employment in the national economy authors postulate a modification of the classification of groups of self-employed and unification of concepts defining this category of work. A proposal for definition of self-employment was submitted for the purposes of Polish official statistics. The authors present the scale of self-employment in Poland in the fourth quarter of 2014 resulting from Polish labour force survey.
