Summary/Abstract: Paper is focusing on current tendencies of non-standard employment expansion in Slovakia. At the sitting of the European Council in Lisbon in March 2000, new goals regarding employment for the European Union countries were set - to increase the total employment rate up to 70 % and to raise the employment rate of women to 60 %. Seven years after setting the goals the total employment rate in Slovakia reached the level of 60,1 % and the employment rate of women was 53 %. One of the possible ways of reaching the ambitious goals of European employment strategy is an increase of labour market flexibility in area of working regimes and working time arrangements. It was the measures for labour market flexibility stimulation and non-standard and applying of atypical employment forms that contributed to a significant growth of the total employment rate and women employment rate in some European Union countries.
