The thesis focuses on the analysis of the impact of the pandemic on employment in Slovenia and Scandinavia, with the aim of providing insights into the nature of the impact of the pandemic on employment and to formulate guidelines for a sustainable improvement of the economic situation and the protection of workers in the future.
The research methodology covers the period from the beginning of the pandemic to the current period. The research is based on a comparison of the situation and measures in Slovenia and the Scandinavian countries. Quantitative and qualitative methods were used, including comparative analysis, a survey of the Slovenian population, and analysis of existing online and statistical sources.
The findings show the complex impact of the pandemic on the labour market, with many vulnerable groups affected. The hypothesis that young and low-educated people are the most affected in terms of job retention was confirmed, while the second hypothesis that employment retention measures were most effective in Sweden proved to be false, as this is the case in Denmark. The in-depth analysis also looked at how the effects of the pandemic are reflected in employment in Slovenia and Scandinavia today.
The relevance of the research lies in the guidelines for a sustainable improvement of economic conditions and the protection of workers in the future. Recommended guidelines include investing in education and retraining, strengthening social security systems, international cooperation, promoting entrepreneurship and supporting vulnerable groups. Adapting the labour market to changing conditions and ensuring employee security, adopting post-pandemic working models and harnessing technology in the workplace are also important. These guidelines provide a basis for further work on reducing the impact of the pandemic and creating a more resilient, flexible and competitive labour market.
