Contributory Factors To The Unemployment Among Graduates In The Labour Market Of The Silesian Voivodeship And The City Of Bielsko-Biała

In this paper, the problem of entering the labour market by young people, in particular graduates, will be discussed. Obstacles and problems relating to the transition from education to career will be presented. Using the Central Statistical Office (GUS) data concerning Poland, the Silesian Voivodeship and the city of Bielsko-Biała, an attempt will be made to give an insight into the notion of unemployment itself. The author has also explored the concept of unemployment, which is presented on the basis of the data obtained from the Central Statistical Office on Polish, Silesian province and the city of Bielsko-Biała. The main objective of this work is to present the concept and the level of unemployment in the city of Bielsko-Biała by comparing the situation in the Silesian Voivodeship with the whole country. Apart from that, the feasible assistance of state-run institutions, including job centres, will be showed as well as the present legal aspects of the problem. The methods used in this paper include statistical devices pertaining to the unemployment in Poland. The theory being substantiated is that those poorly educated are the high-risk group in the context of becoming unemployed.
