Summary/Abstract: The services of the labour market constitute a fundamental element of the social policy effectively operating within the area of the labour market – and especially of active policy. Their provision ensures the existence of the social model in Europe. The services can be provided by the institutions of the government or public sector, but also by private job centres or non-profit organisations. The article presents the situation on the labour market in the EU countries. This is a starting point for outlining an analysis from the perspective of institutional structures and types of the services on the Polish labour market in comparison with the EU policy.
