REGIONAL MISMATCH TENDENCIES IN ROMANIA-EVIDENCE FROM BEVERIDGE CURVE

As a benefit of the recent data improvement regarding the data on job vacancies (by ISCO-88 groups and by CANE Rev.1 section) in Romania provides an opportunity for the examination on short term shifts (between 2005-2008) of the labour markets at NUTS 1 (4 Macroregions) and NUTS 2 (8 development regions) by using the Beveridge curve. In such literature it is noted that “the Beveridge curve depicts the empirical relationship between job vacancies and unemployment, which in turn reflects the underlying efficiency of the job matching process.” (Robert G. Valletta.) Such a regional mismatch can occur as a consequence of uneven regional employment growth or in other words when unemployment with job vacancies, coexists, including the localisation of paring of the unemployment rate and vacancies rate, there could be the beginning of a spatial analysis.
