The unemployment rate differed significantly among the Slovak NUTS 3 regions during the period between 2005 and 2012. According to previous studies high unemployment is caused by drop in economic performance or by some structural problems in the region. During economic growth the unemployment rate was decreasing and during economic downturn it was increasing. We used monthly seasonally adjusted data during the observed period between the years 2005 and 2012. In total, we had 96 observations. We also applied the Hodrick- Prescott filter for estimating the natural rate of unemployment. This method is often used for estimating the potential output and is possible to use in the case of unemployment. Our empirical results show that in most regions the real unemployment rate was lower than the natural rate of unemployment during the pre-crisis period. In other words, it means that the Slovak labour market was i n positive unemployment gap. However, this gap was not the same in all regions."@en . . "WSEAS Press" . .
