Unemployment shows the inefficiency of the labour supply and labour demand adjustment.

The main thesis of this paper is to show that the local initiatives aimed at counterpartying unemployment and entrepreneurship promotion, are modern instruments used to monitor and predict changes in the labor market, skills of employees, creation of new jobs, gain work experience.
