Regional Labour Market Differences in Croatia: Evidence from the 2000-2005 Labour Force Survey Data

In Croatia, there are noticeable differences in regional labour market indicators. Some regions continue to experience high unemployment rates, implying that equilibrating mechanisms on the labour market are underdeveloped. Using the data from the Labour Force Survey for several consecutive years, the interaction between different regional labour market indicators is analysed. The goal of the analysis is to provide the basic information on the characteristics of the labour force in a particular region (education, unemployment, wages, etc.), to give a more complete insight into the question why some regions constantly lag behind others. Differences in unemployment rates in the Croatian counties are related to the characteristics of the workforce in the specific region within the panel data framework.
