Summary/Abstract: The aim of this article is to present how aid is offered to the unemployed and how it is registered in Poland. Special attention is given to profiling as the new kind of aid offered. The procedure was introduced elsewhere already in the 1990 s whereas in Poland it has been in use for two years now. The paper is based on the oficial statistics provided by the Ministry of Labour and Social Policy and the National Bank of Poland, and interviews with civil servants working with the unemployed. The analysis points to the need for diversification of the kinds of profiling aid for the unemployed.
