Objectives:
The main objective of the article is to identify the factors shaping hotel employees' choice of a good workplace (SDG 8) in the context of Sustainability.

Material and methods:
The study involved six hotels located in Warsaw, Krakow, Wroclaw, and Opole (Poland), encompassing a total of 193 employees. Quantitative research was conducted using the diagnostic survey method and a questionnaire technique, with a random-time sampling approach. Statistical analyses included descriptive statistics such as absolute frequency of respondents (n), respondent proportions (p ̂_1), response proportions (p ̂_2), and 95% confidence intervals for p ̂_1 (95% CI). Additionally, Cochran’s Q and Dunn tests with Bonferroni correction for simple comparisons were performed.

Results:
Only 1.6% of hotel employees identified personal ecological beliefs as a factor in their workplace selection. For hotels, efforts should focus on providing employees with adequate professional development opportunities and increasing the importance of environmental considerations in the workplace selection process.

Conclusions:
The analysis of the study results allows the following answers to the research questions posed in the introduction: 1. The most important factors influencing workplace selection among the surveyed hotel employees were salary level, workplace atmosphere, and opportunities for professional development. 2. Workplace selection factors were not limited to economic considerations but also included social aspects. Environmental factors were cited very rarely. 3. Among the surveyed hotel employees, correlations were observed between workplace selection factors and socio-economic status elements such as gender, education level, and place of residence.
