Unlike Russia, where very few employment reductions have been carried out, downsizing in Polish companies is pervasive and appears to be accelerating. The factors that drive downsizing in a transition economy like Poland are not the same as those in the west. Nonetheless, the results of this study indicate that downsizing in Poland has had mostly beneficial effects on company functioning.}, journal = {JEEMS Journal of East European Management Studies}, pages = {37--54}, author = {Mrozkowski, Tomasz and Wermus, Mark and Clarke, Linda D.}, volume = {10}, number = {1} }
