Praca.pl Job Market Stats — daily counts of Polish job postings by region and category

Daily counts of Polish job postings on Praca.pl for 16 voivodeships x 13 job categories: live, new and removed postings, how many state a salary, and the median advertised monthly salary. Updated every day. The 18 regional rows of one day (16 voivodeships, abroad and unmapped) cost $0.905 ($0.05 a row, plus $0.005 for the run start); the full region x category table of one day is up to 234 rows (18 x 13; a combination with no posting that day is left out, so 231 rows on 20 October 2026), about $11.70.

Press Start. The default returns the latest day, one row per voivodeship.

What it is for

• Research: a daily series of hiring activity in Polish regions and occupations, from 2 October 2026 on, for papers and regional indices.
• HR and recruitment reports: how many jobs are live, opened and closed in a region or category this week, and what pay employers advertise.
• Location comparisons: which voivodeship is hiring drivers, nurses or IT staff, and at what advertised salary, before you open an office or plan a campaign.

How it works

Every morning listingworks reads Praca.pl's public list pages in full, keeps a first-seen ledger of every posting, and counts the day's snapshot by voivodeship and job category. The counts go into an Apify key-value store that this Actor reads; the series runs from 2 October 2026, with 3 and 4 October missing (see "Days held"). Aggregates only: no postings, no titles, no URLs, no employer or person names.

Looking for the postings themselves (title, employer, town, contract, pay)? See the Praca.pl Scraper, which returns one row per posting.

Field	Meaning
date	Snapshot day (Warsaw). The site is read in full once a day, about 06:00 Warsaw time.
voivodeship	One of the 16 voivodeships, or abroad (postings located outside Poland), or unmapped (place not matched to a voivodeship).
category	Job category, or all with region. Assigned by keywords in the Polish job title, first match wins; other when nothing matches (about 1 posting in 10). Approximate.
live_postings	Postings on the site's list pages in that day's full snapshot.
new_postings	Postings seen for the first time that day (a first-seen ledger kept since 2 October 2026).
removed_postings	Postings in the previous full snapshot and not in this one.
with_salary	Live postings that show a salary.
median_salary_pln_month	Median of the lower bound of the stated monthly salary in PLN (gross or net as advertised). Empty unless the cell has at least 5 live postings and 5 such salaries.

Days held

From 2 October 2026, one day per full read of the site. 3 and 4 October 2026 have no data (the site was not read in full on those days); they are skipped, never estimated. 5 October's removed_postings covers three days (3–5 October). Daily figures are comparable from 6 October 2026.

FAQ

Where do the numbers come from? From listingworks' own daily full read of Praca.pl's public list pages. Only list-page fields are used; individual postings are not opened, and no name, contact or photo is collected.

How fresh is it? Each day is added about 06:15 Warsaw time (05:15 from 25 October), after that morning's read.

Can categories change? The keyword list may be refined; a change is announced here and not applied to days already published.

For AI agents & LLM apps

Give an AI agent this Actor as a tool through Apify's MCP server: add https://mcp.apify.com?tools=listingworks/praca-stats to any MCP client. The agent calls it with, for example, {"granularity": "region", "days": 7} and gets the rows as JSON: a week of regional counts it can chart or compare.

Legal notice

The counts are derived from public list pages of Praca.pl, read once a day at a polite pace; Praca.pl was told about listingworks' collection in writing (29 September and 6 October 2026). The output holds no personal data. Published figures should credit "Source: listingworks, from public Praca.pl listings".

Pricing
