UNEMPLOYMENT IN THE CONTEXT OF HUMAN RESOURCES IN THE EASTERN PART OF THE SLOVAK-POLISH BORDER REGION
Journal Title: FOLIA GEOGRAPHICA - Year 2018, Vol 60, Issue 2
Abstract
The social-economic development in the border regions in the eastern part of the Slovak-Polish border area is difficult. It is determined by a wide range of factors of which, apart from location, the key role is played by human resources represented by inhabitants of nine border districts in the Prešov Region on the Slovak side, five powiats in the Malopolskie Voivodeship and six powiats in the Podkarpackie Voivodeship on the Polish side. The paper deals with the research of unemployment in the context of changes in the age and education structure of inhabitants in the last 15 years, such as human resources quality indicators in the demarcated region. The majority of the regions and powiats belong to the least developed regions within their national territory and that is also reflected in the development of registered unemployment. Inversely proportional dependence between the population development and educational level changes can be observed. While the population´s educational level defined by the highest educational level achieved rises, the unfavourable population development negatively manifests itself in changed population age structure – decreased the share of youth population aged less than 15 in the region population and the increased post-productive group of population. For the future period continuous ageing of population is presumed that will be reflected in continuous labour force ageing. The situation is also worsened by the unfavourable migration trend associated with younger, economically active population leaving the region for work.
