Abstract

[The chapter aims to present the changes taking place in the service sector in Poland in 1989–2019. The current development level of the service sector in Poland is primarily a consequence of the political and economic conditions that have existed in Poland in recent decades. In the period of real socialism, Poland’s socio-economic policy was focused on the development of industry. The share of people employed in services was much lower than in developed European countries. It was only in 1989 that the political, social and economic changes initiated in Poland built the foundations for the faster development of this sector. The dynamic development of services that has taken place in Poland since the beginning of the 1990s has been accompanied by changes related to its structure. This study shows the quantitative and qualitative changes taking place in the area of services. The analysis of the generic structure focuses primarily on the development of modern knowledge-based services, in particular business, financial and electronic services. The analysis of structural changes is carried out on the basis of the Polish Classification of Economic Activities (PKD), on the basis of the data published by Statistics Poland (GUS) and Eurostat.]
