“…Another critical factor in the acceptance of refugees is the present economic situation. More than half of the respondents were not worried that the influx of refugees would worsen the labor market in Poland; moreover, 40% thought that they would contribute to Poland's economic growth (42). The influx of workers can increase the country's economic potential (43).…”

IntroductionThe outbreak of the Russo-Ukrainian war on 24 February 2022 has sparked a migration crisis in Europe. As a result, Poland has emerged as the country with the highest number of refugees. Due to differing social and political sentiments, this has been a significant challenge for the hitherto mono-ethnic Polish society.MethodsComputer-assisted web interviews (CAWIs) were conducted with 505 Poles, mainly women with higher education from large urban centers, involved in helping refugees. Their attitudes toward refugees were assessed using an original questionnaire, while their mental health was also evaluated using the General Health Questionnaire-28 (GHQ-28).ResultsThe vast majority of respondents reported favorable attitudes toward refugees from Ukraine. In addition, 79.2% believed refugees should be given free access to medical care, and 85% supported free access to education for migrants. Nearly 60% of respondents were not worried about their financial status due to the crisis; moreover, 40% believed that immigrants could boost the Polish economy. And 64% believed it would enrich Poland culturally. However, the majority of respondents feared infectious diseases and believed migrants should be vaccinated according to the vaccination schedule applicable in the country. Fear of war correlated positively with fear of refugees. On the GHQ-28, almost half of the respondents scored above clinical significance. Higher scores were typical for women and those fearing war and refugees.ConclusionPolish society has shown a tolerant attitude in the face of the migration crisis. The vast majority of respondents showed positive attitudes toward refugees from Ukraine. The ongoing war in Ukraine has a negative impact on the mental health of Poles, which correlates with their attitude toward refugees.

“…Difficulties in acquiring qualified employees may partially be a consequence of the competency mismatch of candidates on the market with the dynamically advancing technological capabilities, digitization, and the evolving specificity and organization of many enterprises [45]. Moreover, the labor market dynamics forces companies to be able to quickly train employees to adapt to production and/or employment changes [46,47], and furthermore, the migration crisis [48][49][50], results in a new requirement-to be able to create workplaces for foreign-speaking employees [51]. All this causes the search for solutions that may support the functioning of enterprises without causing downtime in the execution of tasks.…”

The article presents a novel idea of Interaction Quality Sensor (IQS), introduced in the complete solution of Hybrid INTelligence (HINT) architecture for intelligent control systems. The proposed system is designed to use and prioritize multiple information channels (speech, images, videos) in order to optimize the information flow efficiency of interaction in HMI systems. The proposed architecture is implemented and validated in a real-world application of training unskilled workers—new employees (with lower competencies and/or a language barrier). With the help of the HINT system, the man–machine communication information channels are deliberately chosen based on IQS readouts to enable an untrained, inexperienced, foreign employee candidate to become a good worker, while not requiring the presence of either an interpreter or an expert during training. The proposed implementation is in line with the labor market trend, which displays significant fluctuations. The HINT system is designed to activate human resources and support organizations/enterprises in the effective assimilation of employees to the tasks performed on the production assembly line. The market need of solving this noticeable problem was caused by a large migration of employees within (and between) enterprises. The research results presented in the work show significant benefits of the methods used, while supporting multilingualism and optimizing the preselection of information channels.

“…Massive migration of Ukrainians to Poland influences the economy of the country, and requires special actions of the state authorities and public institutions in Poland (Duszczyk & Kaczmarczyk, 2022). The structure of migrants (mostly women, children and elderly) makes it difficult to enter the labour market (Habarta, 2022). Though, H. Brücker, L. Goßner, A. Hauptmann, P. Jaschke et al (2022) analyzed the possible influence on migration on Germany and highlights the better fit of Ukrainian migrants to the labor market compared to other foreign nationalities.…”

The article devotes to the topic of migration from Ukraine. Currently the massive flow of emigrants from Ukraine can be observed, which was caused by the Russian aggression. Definitely, it will influence the Ukrainian economy. In the article the tendencies of emigration from Ukraine since the year 2000 and the current flow and problems are analyzed. The main consequences of emigration in the current conditions are evaluated. It is mentioned that the influence of migration can have a long-lasting effect on the economy of the country. It is obvious that it is important to return people to Ukraine and to take special measures on the governmental and municipal levels. The methodology of econometric analysis is used to analyze the influence of factors on the migration in the country in the pre-war period. It is obvious that the main reason for emigration nowadays is the war in the country, and the decision of people to return will be influenced by the safety in the country, social conditions and the state of economy. It is crucial to define the economic factors, which will influence the decision of people for migration or returning to Ukraine. It is noted that employment and income, economic growth and perspectives of reconstruction and development of the country are important. JEL classification: F66, J61
