THE MAIN FINDINGS
THE MAIN FINDINGS
INTERNET IMPACT ON DAILY LIFE

Internet has a significant impact on most aspects of respondent’s lives. Using the net influences
level of knowledge about the world, interests and hobbies, as well relationships with other people.
Dealing with official matters is rarely done with use of Internet.
For people with a university degree internet has a meaningful impact on all areas of their lives.
The one exception is meeting new people. Oposite phenomenon can be observed among people with
vocational education - for them internet has the greatest impact on meeting new people.

Most of respondents declares that their computer skills are adequate to their needs. They realize
the importance of these skills in finding and getting a new or better paid job.

The higher the education level, the more common belief that ability to use internet is necessary
to obtain or change job as well as find better paid one. Interestingly, people with the highest and
lowest financial status don’t think that way.

People with disabilities feel least often that their employers care about the development of their
computer skills. They have also the lowest digital competence - both - when it comes to using
computer and the Internet.

THE MAIN FINDINGS
THE IMPORTANCE OF THE INTERNET IN THE KEY AREAS OF PUBLIC LIFE

The most important area of public life is to have an access to jobs offers via the internet and the
ability to work from home. Remote work is the most important aspect for the disabled people.

Ability to find information and advice on consumer rights is important as well.

The importance of access to knowledge and culture (museums and galleries, libraries and virtual
directories) increases with the level of education .
INTERNET USERS EXPERIENCE WITH OFFICES AND OFFICES' WEBSITES

Within the last 12 months a vast majority of internet users experienced an event that required
contact with the governmental office or other public institution. At the same time, half of the
respondents in the last month visited the office website. One in ten people with vocational education
has never been on such sites.
Jobs, health issues, insurance and education are the most interesting issues searched on the
websites of government. Information about public tenders turned out to be the least interesting.

Popularity of information about job offers is related to the financial situation - the worse it is, the
more likely respondents are to look online for information about jobs. People with disabilities search
for job offers more often than others. They also look online for health-related info.

THE MAIN FINDINGS
EVALUATION OF OFFICES' WEBSITES

The vast majority of people who visit websites of government offices, evaluate them positively
or neutrally in terms of intelligibility, usability and ease of finding information.

Among respondents with higher education, ease of finding information, evaluation and usability
of the websites is more positive. The worst rated aspect for the disabled respondents is clarity of
information on the websites.

Despite the fact that almost 90% of people during last 12 months, viewed the governmental
office website, only 30% have tried to settle a matter via internet. It has been done more frequently
by people with higher education, respondents living in large cities, as well as disabled ones.

Those who have tried to settle official matter via internet, evaluate it more positively or neutrally
than others. In most cases, a negative assessment of the website results from lack of possibility to
resolve case via net.
NEEDS IN CONTACT WITH THE GOVERNMENTAL OFFICE

Respondents do not need to co-create office services, but above all, they want to get
information about how and where they can settle their official matter. The exception are the people
with the best financial situation, who are willing to take part in the consultations on the creation and
modification of services of public office.

As needed they also consider the possibility of contact with the office via the internet and
choose a convenient way of such contacts (in person, online, phone, letter).

Adapting services and information to the needs of disabled people is important and necessary
only for this group of respondents.
THE MAIN FINDINGS
LIMITATIONS ON THE USE OF OFFICE SERVICES VIA THE INTERNET

The main reason that limits the use of governmental office services via internet, is the necessity
of a personal appearance at the office. Narrow range of services available to settle online and little
trust in internet as a medium are the subsequent strong barriers.

People with primary education are afraid of using internet in official matters and still strongly
prefer direct contact with an official. All limitations are generally more often indicated by the people
with the worst financial situation.

Disabled respondents more frequently than others declare that they do not feel any restrictions
in the use of governmental office services over the internet.
ePUAP

Approximately ¼ of respondents had heard of the Electronic Platform of Public Administration
Services (ePUAP) and trusted ePUAP profile. With increasing education, improving the financial
situation and the increase of the size of the place of residence, awareness of both ePUAP tools grows.

People with disabilities less often declared familiarity with ePUAP (if compared to other
respondents).
SURVEY RESULTS
INTERNET IMPACT ON DAILY LIFE
INTERNET IMPACT ON DAILY LIFE
Internet has a positive impact on most of aspects of people's lives. It influences the most
positively the level of knowledge about the world, interests and hobbies, as well as
relationships with others. Settling official matters is rarely done via internet.
For women, using the net more often has a positive effect on relationships - with friends and family. Men
more often feel the positive effects on areas related to their competencies - knowledge about politics, and
income and financial situation.
The impact of internet on family relationships is proportional to age of the respondents - older people see
more positive consequences of being online. Inverse phenomenon appears if meeting new people in the
net is concerned. Then internet affects more positively younger people. Therefore, belief that use of
Internet has positive implications for everyday life is growing with age.
People with better IT skills (both computer and internet) more often believe that internet usage has
influence on all aspects of their lives.
Place of residence not in any way differentiates the impact of the Internet on daily life.
In comparison with 2010, respondents were more likely to see positive effects of the Internet on
relationships with other people and their better income. They appreciated more strongly settling official
matters as well. However, less often they believe that the network has a positive impact on their
knowledge (about the world and politics), interest or professional qualifications.

IT SKILLS
The vast majority of respondents think that their computer skills are relevant to the their
needs. Moreover, they note the importance of these skills in finding a new, better paid job.
Most respondents declared using peripheral devices such as a printer or scanner on daily basis. They can
also detect and solve some problems with computer.
Only 5% of the respondents admitted that they can not execute any of the activities related to using their
computer.
Most people declared ability to create an email account, buy and sell things on the web, use an online
bank account. More advanced functionalities such as electronic signatures are still unpopular among wide
groups of society.
The percentage of people who can not complete any of the listed activities on the Internet is very low.
With the increase of evaluation of respondent’s computer skills level, conviction of held skills and their
impact on working life seems growing.

THE IMPORTANCE OF THE INTERNET IN THE
KEY AREAS OF PUBLIC LIFE
THE IMPORTANCE OF THE INTERNET IN THE KEY AREAS
OF PUBLIC LIFE
Internet is an important medium in public lives of respondents. It allows to have an access to
job offers and gives the opportunity to work from home. These two things are most important
functionalities for the majority of internet users.
Similar importance is attributed to the ability of finding information and advice on consumer rights as well
as the ability to arrange a medical appointment. The least important issues are occasional situations - such
as voting in elections (municipal and parliamentary), participation in public consultations and watching
collections of museums and galleries via the internet.
Women are more concerned about areas related to work and education - working from home, access to
job offers, consumer rights, and the library directories. For men more important issues are those related to
civil life - to have a single document with the chip, vote and participate in public consultations via internet.
The importance of issues is closely associated with the age of respondents. Young people (18-24 and 2535-year-olds) appreciate the fact that the Internet gives them access to job offers. 35-45-year-old users
are more pragmatic – for them the most important are practical possibilities of using the web such as
contact with the school or medical consultations. People 45-54-year-old appreciate convenience of the
internet. They prize having a single document and the access to appoint medical consultations online.
The oldest respondents perceive access to information as the most valuable function of internet. It gives
them access to the news, reports and statistics, but also museums and galleries. The net enables
participation in public consultations as well. The importance of public issues increases with age - older
people more often than younger declare high importance of voting and public consultation via internet.

THE IMPORTANCE OF THE INTERNET IN THE KEY AREAS
OF PUBLIC LIFE
Access to job offers and information about consumer rights regardless of the region are seen as most
important. However, in Mazovia Province equally important is ability to work from home, in Małopolska
Province important is ability to arrange medical consultation.
Compared to 2008 and 2010, in 2012 the importance of having online access to job offers, advice on
consumer rights and opportunities to work from home has increased . At the same time importance of
participation in public consultations via internet decreased .
Access to such data as health history and museum collections on the internet appeared to be more
important than in 2010, but not as important as in 2008.

INTERNET USERS EXPERIENCE WITH OFFICES AND
OFFICES' WEBSITES
Job offers, health, education and insurance issues are the most frequently searched
information on the state offices websites. Information about public tenders gets much less
attention.
Women more often than men try to find online job offers as well as information related to the social issues
- health, education, insurance and grants. On the other hand, men seek for information related to
completing specific issues - automotive, construction and business.
Young people often look on the websites for information about their personal development - jobs,
education and grants, funds and EU projects, including statistics and reports. Older respondents declared
more often looking for information concerning health, insurance and taxes.
Job offers and health issues are the most wanted information in all regions of Poland.
General interest in any information on state offices’ websites (especially info related to taxes and business)
declineded over the past two years.
37
EVALUATION OF OFFICES' WEBSITES
The vast majority of people who visit public offices’ websites, evaluate them positively or
neutrally in terms of clarity, usefulness and ease of finding information.
Top-rated aspect of the state offices websites is clarity of information. Ease of finding needed information
on such websites received the worst opinions.
Interestingly, men and young people are more skeptical in the assessment of public offices websites.
Level of computer skills seem to play significant role in the perception of the intelligibility of information on
the websites. People who use the computer in incomplete range (e.g. they cannot edit any content, do not
use the printer) judge websites worse. Similar importance should be given to level of internet skills - the
higher this level, the better website rating.
State offices’ websites are top rated in all aspects in Pomerania and Wielkopolska.
People living in southern regions of Poland evaluated ease of finding information significantly more critical
than other respondents.
Compared to 2010, more people perceive positively intelligibility and ease of finding information at the
governmental websites.

SETTLING OFFICIAL MATTERS ON THE INTERNET
Despite the fact that almost 90% of people over the last 12 months, previewed the office,
only 30% have tried to settle an issue via internet.
Most of those who have tried to place an issue via website, evaluate the process positively or
neutrally. Among negative opinions, inability to resolve the matter online plays a great role.
Official matters are handled by the net more often by men. The frequency of using this medium to attend
the official matters increases with age and the level of computer skills.
People above 45 years-old and those, who have computer skills on medium or high level are the most
satisfied with the way the office deal with their cases. The main reason for dissatisfaction with the service
provided by the office's is inability to resolve the matter through internet. For the quarter surveyed
respondents settlement of the case was too complicated, too long or they experienced some technical
problems.
Residents of the western area of Poland more often than people from the eastern regions declared using
the possibility of settling official matters through the web. However, place of residence does not affect their
evaluation of the process (Mazovia Province residents are the most satisfied).

NEEDS IN CONTACT WITH THE OFFICE
Respondents do not need to co-create office services. Above all, they want to get information
how and where they can do the job.
They consider the possibility of contact with the office via the internet and choose a convenient way of
such contacts (in person, online, phone, letter) as needed.
In most cases, women are more likely to express their needs related to contact with the office - they
expect information on how and where they can settle an office matter, what are their civil rights and
responsibilities. Also women want to choose the way of communication with state office, get personalized
information and notifications. On the other hand, men more often than women expect to participate in the
consultations about creation new office services.
The possibility of settling matters via internet would be appreciated especially by the people aged 25-54
years old. Older and disabled respondents expect more often adaptation of services and information to
their needs.
Distribution of the most important needs in all provinces is similar to the general population.
Respondents mostly need information on where to settle the matter, also they need the ability to choose
the way of communication. Opportunity to settle matters on the internet turned out to be very important in
eastern region. Respondents living in the western areas of Poland find information about civil rights and
clarification of procedures as more crucial.

LIMITATIONS ON THE USE OF OFFICE SERVICES VIA THE
INTERNET
The main reason that limits the use of state office services via internet, is the necessity of a
personal appearance at the office. Anothet barrier is small range of services available to be
settled online. Moreover, polish internet users present general little trust in internet as a
medium.
Internet as a medium of contact with state offices finds less trust among women than men. They are
afraid to use the internet in official matters and they worry whether the matter will be handled in an
appropriate manner. What is more, they miss information on how to settle the matter proprely. In addition,
they experience difficulties in completing the online forms. On the other hand, men criticize the scope or
absence of some services.
For older respondents lack of specific services less often seen as a limitation. In addition, age has an
impact on the sense of limitations - older people often prefer the direct contact and are discouraged by the
bad experiences.
Both level of computer skills and internet experience directly influences the perception of the limitations
while contacting the state office via internet. People with medium or high level of IT skill can find such
limitations in almost every aspect of using public wlebsites. It is worth to mention that people without
computer skills more often were not able to determine the specific limitations in use of online services of
public offices.
Limitations on the use of office services via the internet in all provinces are the same. The exception is
Mazovia Province and West Pomerania Province, where lack of needed services seems to be problematic.

Compared to 2010, the number of people who are afraid of using internet in official matters and prefer

The ePUAP platform and trusted ePUAP profile were recognized more often by men and those with high
level of computer skills.
18-24-year-old respondents were significantly less aware of these two tools. Their level of knowledge was
reflecting level of those, who declared not having their own computer.
Residents of the northern provinces, Mazovia Province and Opole Province delared better knowledge aboth
ePUAP and its trusted profile if compared to other regions. Respondents living in eastern regions were the
least familiar with these tools.
