ABSTRACT

Poland and the Czech Republic are about to join the European Union shortly. This, on the one hand, makes it necessary to undertake appropriate harmonisation measures by these countries and, on the other, creates both justified and unjustified concerns. This study makes a comprehensive attempt at assessing risks of disrupting and upsetting labour markets in forestry in such areas as levels of remuneration and expenditures associated with carrying out individual tasks in forestries of Poland, Germany and the Czech Republic. The performed detailed studies were carried out in frontier areas of the above-mentioned countries.

Key words: European Union, forest economy, employment in forestry, harvest costs.
