Some 948,000 people were unemployed in September, down from 958,000 in August, Rafalska told public broadcaster Polish Radio on Thursday.

According to the EU’s Eurostat statistics agency, which uses a different methodology, joblessness in Poland dropped to 3.4 percent in August, the second-lowest rate in the 28-member European Union.

The EU average in August remained unchanged from July, standing at 6.8 percent, according to Eurostat.
