Summary/Abstract: Information on working environment conditions in Poland is provided mainly by two surveys carried out by the Central Statistical Office, namely the national survey on working conditions and the LFS module survey "Accidents at work and work-related health problems" as well as two international surveys: The European Working Conditions Survey (EWCS), conducted by the European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions (Eurofound), and the European Survey of Enterprises on New and Emerging Risks (ESENER), conducted by the European Agency for Safety and Health at Work (EU-OSHA). The article presents the ways in which information on working environment conditions is collected in these surveys and discusses their information potential in terms of the range of information collected and how it can be used to assess the working environment of workers.
