Demographic challenges require strategies

The study reveals differing priorities between young people and employers regarding Poland's future by 2035. Employers emphasize energy investments, while youth focus on housing policies. Both groups recognize the need for skill adaptation due to rapid labor market changes driven by automation and AI. Nearly half of young individuals anticipate needing to change careers, highlighting their awareness of job market volatility. Both parties agree on the state's role in facilitating this transition, with employers suggesting that young people should bear some retraining costs, while youth expect employer support. The state is seen as crucial in managing these changes and redefining social risks associated with job transitions.
