Abstract

Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén county has high unemployment rates and one of the worst economic indicators in Hungary. The high unemployment rate implies a high number of adult education for jobseekers. Most of the jobseekers trained with the support of the Government Office that’s why they concentrated in the county and district centres, i.e. the smaller municipalities do not provide the training that would help them to improve their position in the labour market. The negative demographic trends are affected by the emigration of people due to unemployment, which could be addressed by learning a new marketable profession. In Hungary, those who successfully complete the training can find employment in two labour market sectors, the primary and the secondary labour market (public employment). Employment in the primary labour market started to decline sharply with the emergence of public employment and this downward trend has continued to the present day. Employment in the public works programme has gained ground in the 11 years under review. Employment in the primary labour market was concentrated in Miskolc, the county capital and Tiszaújváros and their agglomerations, in the dominant centres of services and industry. While those finding work in public employment were mostly present in the northern part of the county, in the area bordering Slovakia.
