Przemiany w sferze pracy i ich wpływ na budżet czasu konsumentów
Transformations in the Labour Sphere and Their Impact on Consumers’ Time Budget

Summary/Abstract: In her article, based on secondary and primary research, the author characterised the most important transformations in the labour sphere, being effects of the technological development and the process of transformation and integration of the Polish economy, in the aspect of their impact on the contemporary consumer’s time budget (on the example of residents of large towns). The felt by most consumers acceleration of the pace of life and time deficit translate into problems with time budget management and, particularly, with balancing thereof. This is also caused by work, which we devote not only more and more of our time, but also a considerable part of vitality. Due to the interdependency and complementarily of individual spheres of human life, such a situation results in constraint of the possibilities to meet many important human needs connected with the family life, social responsibilities or leisure.
