Managing by results started to be used by many countries’ local government units, which began – either on their own initiative or within the framework of national systems – to define, measure and compare the efficiency of public services. European and American experiences as regards measuring the results of their activity, including the quality of public services, are plentiful and varied. This paper presents the nature of performance measurement systems at the local level functioning in a few selected European and American countries (Great Britain, France, Sweden, Italy, Spain, Germany, U.S. and Canada). The purpose of the paper is to identify the Polish experience in measuring local government performance against the background of foreign concepts.

Findings of research have confirmed the main thesis that activities of the local government in this field should be regarded as not very effective.

As a part of the public administration, local government represents one of the forms of decentralization. It is primarily based on constitutional principle of subsidiarity, autonomy in realizing its tasks and responsibility for their realization. The basic units of the territorial administrative division under the Polish legislation, municipalities and cities, have an important role to play here. These units have legal personality, judicially protected independence, and receive funds from public income which makes them independent from other government bodies and from the state. Nevertheless, cities are not sovereign in decision taking or law making processes and they merely carry out state enforced tasks. This structure strengthens the supervisory role of the central administration which is primarily focused on verification. The modern world enforces decentralization processes. The development of cities is based on active adaptation of innovations offered by information societies. At the beginning of the XXI century, municipal governments were indirectly forced to introduce new forms of public and local management. The fundamental dimension of these forms is embodied in a symbolic transition “from administration to management”.

The reflections undertaken in this article concern the issue of strategic planning of regional social policy. Due to the changes to the political system in Poland, initiated in 1989 and continued in 1999, local and regional authorities have been transformed into a kind of independent organizations pursuing their own policies based on long-term action plans - strategies. The requirement to draw up voivodeship strategies results not only from legal provisions, but also from a number of other motives, such as the wish to obtain funding from the EU structural funds, the necessity to integrate actions that are taken locally or to identify basic needs, resources and problems arising in the region. The article focuses on this area of regional strategic planning which relates to the wider social policy. The main aim of the article is an attempt at assessing the planning function performed by the voivodeship self-government. It looks into the principles and stages of strategic planning, the legal conditions for the development of voivodeship strategies relating to wider social policy issues and presents the results of empirical studies on regional strategies.

Employment offices are an important component of a well-functioning labor market. Due to determined financial outlays, proper employment policy, clear and transparent ways of obtaining aid from labour offices – the system of searching for – and then procuring jobs for the unemployed – seems to be more readable and understandable. An important role in the shaping of appropriate employment policy in Poland continues to be played by a proper information system and the availability of entities responsible for the functioning of local and regional labour markets. Institutions of work are relevant moderators in shaping regional and local labour markets. One must be aware that a good economic situation – and this not only at home but in the world as well – also plays a vital role as a useful instrument in meeting the needs of inhabitants as regards obtaining employment. Therefore, general economic prosperity, effective legal tools in the form of transparent legislative acts, as well as means of funding realization of defined goals in the sphere of employment policy are vitally necessary.
