The goal of the research was to analyze the factors
affecting the desire to find a job abroad among young Polish
health care workers on the basis of determining the emigration
plans of students and trainees of Medical University of Warsaw.
Empirical studies were based on a survey distributed among
undergraduate students and graduates of MUW. The biggest
impact on the willingness to seek employment in another country
are higher wages, better working conditions, greater opportunity
for professional development, positive feedback from health
professionals and a lack of job stability in Poland. The strength of
individual factors for emigration varies between representatives
of different faculties (students of medicine, nursing, midwifery,
dietetics, public health, physiotherapy and pharmacy). The
percentage of people who consider leaving is higher among
people from better-off families.
