Abstract

Beginning with the theoretical reasons regarding unemployment and active employment policies, we intend to carry out a quantitative analysis based on the data provided by AJOFM and presented in the Activity Report of 2017 aiming to estimate the effectiveness of active policies against unemployment by taking the number of employments due to policies implemented in Bihor County. The objectives of the study were: to analyze the evolution trends of unemployment in Bihor county compared to the national level during the transition period, to discuss the trend and the unemployment structure in Bihor in 2017, to determine of the occupancy rate of unemployed people in Bihor in 2017, as well and analyzing the effectiveness of the employment policies of graduates. Statistical data suggests that the most effective active measure to stimulate employment is mediation of work, beginning with the idea that 44.4% of the people included were involved in mediation. The analysis of the concerns for professional training shows that the highest interest for this form of professional insertion is among young people, oriented towards qualification / requalification and improvement of the professional training. This trend could also indicate the existence of a discrepancy between the school network in the county and the structure of the labor market. The existence of compatibility between the orientation of the unemployed people towards jobs demanded on the labor market and the organization of training courses in accordance with such tendencies suggests an adequate preoccupation of the specialized institutions for amending the malfunctions existing in this respect. Regarding the efficiency of the policies to stimulate the employment of young people there is a more pronounced interest from young people in using employment policies in comparison to other age groups. On the other hand, there is a certain reluctance on the part of the employers to access the state's facilities for the employment of unemployed people.
