Characteristics of unused labor resources in Poland, taking into account the time spent without employment

Summary/Abstract: The research has two defined objectives. First of them was to identify changes on the labour market with special attention paid to the unused labour resources. The following aim was to investigate the influence of endogenous variables (both quantitative and qualitative) to the period of being unemployed as well as building the proper econometric model. The paper has been divided into two parts. In the first part the basic definitions concerning the labour market were presented. The identification of crucial problems and characteristics of changes on this market in the period 2010-2014 were conducted. The next part identified variables influencing the period of being unemployed. To reach the aim the authors used the Cox model of proportional hazards which enables the analysis of a duration of analysed factor without any need of defining the function of basic hazard. The main results of research show that the most often reason of skipping the job search regarding people of mid-age are diseases and disabilities as well as family duties. The econometric model made the identification of characteristics influencing the duration of unemplotment period. It was defined that the internet-based job search and gaining new competences shortened the time of searching for a job.
