UNEMPLOYMENT IN THE SLOVAK REPUBLIC AND FACTORS INFLUENTING ITS DEVELOPMENT

Summary/Abstract: Since 1989 an unemployment has become an inherent phenomenon of the transfor-mation process of the Slovak economy. Its characteristic features are first of all the great regional difference, the high share of long term unemployed and unemployment of graduates and young’s in general. The high grows of unemployment was recorded espe-cially in 1991 and at the beginning of 1999. The main reasons of the growth of unemployment are mainly the decrease of the dynamics of growth and consecutive fall of the Slovak economy and the structural, regional and demographic development. The unemployment is first of all the problem of the national economy and not the labour market alone. The absence of the national, departmental and interdepartmental economic policy can be observed. Especially impor-tant role in the development of unemployment play micro-economical factors, unfa-vourable stage of the enterprises zone, which is unfavourite to creation new working places. The share of expenses from the insurance system in unemployment on active policy of the labour market is decreasing. It can be stated according to the Institute of Forecasting of the Slovak Academy of Sciences for the period 1994–1998 that increase in expenses on active labour market policy about 1 billion SKK have created space for cut-down of unemployment about 35–40 thousand jobs, which represent expenses cca 30 thousand on one subsidized job place yearly.
