Analýza struktury nezaměstnanosti v Praze a v Pardubickém kraji

The bachelor's thesis analyzes the determinants affecting the unemployment rate at the regional level with a focus on connections and differences in Prague and the Pardubice region, as these regions are characterized by a long-term low unemployment rate. The main differences are, for example, the average salary or differences in the level of education of the population. On the contrary, a common feature is, for example, the trend of growth in the number of residents of foreign nationalities. The aim of the thesis is to compare the determinants across regions and then to test the significance of individual variables using regression analysis. In the empirical part of the thesis, a linear regression model is constructed using panel data from 14 regions of the Czech Republic in the years 2005-2021, available from the Czech Statistical Office and the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications. Based on the results of the regression analysis, a negative effect on unemployment can be confirmed for the variables GDP and age. A positive effect, on the other hand, with a variable dose. The main hypothesis of this bachelor's thesis, which reads "People with older age and higher education, achieve lower unemployment than people with younger age and lower education" is also put to the test. The negative effect of education on unemployment could not be confirmed and therefore the hypothesis was rejected.
