One indicator of the economy is the unemployment rate. It is monitored in all countries of the world, especially in periods when it increases significantly in a short period of time. It is one of the highly debated problems of society. Countries around the world attempt to solve at least part of the problem through economic policy. The aim of this paper is to highlight the problem of unemployment in the Slovak Republic in all districts of the Slovak Republic. The research sample consisted of the unemployed in the individual districts of the Slovak Republic between 2019 and 2021. When we compared the years 2020 and 2021 with 2021, we found a significant difference in the number of unemployed, but when we compared the years 2020 and 2021, there was no significant difference.
