Nezaměstnanost v Česku: Faktory a proměnné ovlivňující její vývoj

This thesis examines the unemployment rate in the Czech Republic and the factors that influence it. The aim of the thesis is to identify, on the basis of theory and previous research, the factors contributing to the unemployment rate, and subsequently to assess their impact using linear regression in order to determine the causes of differences in unemployment across the administrative districts of municipalities with extended powers. The main contribution of the thesis lies in identifying the factors that shape unemployment and in pinpointing the regions that differ significantly from the rest of the country. The data used in the thesis come from publicly available sources, and the analysis is conducted in the open-source statistical software Jamovi. The methods applied include descriptive statistics, exploratory data analysis, correlation matrices, and linear regression models. The results show that the primary factors affecting unemployment are migration and the rate of debt enforcement proceedings, followed by life expectancy. At the level of administrative districts of municipalities with extended powers, no significant influence of age structure or educational attainment was found. In addition to explaining the impact of the identified factors, the thesis also identifies specific administrative districts, describes the possible causes of differences between the examined areas, and proposes theoretical solutions to issues arising from regional disparities in unemployment at both the local and national level.
