A number of economic and socio-economic theories try to systematically link key the decision-making factors of the labour market. In addition various economic, sociological and psychological theories of occupational choices focus on the issue of the contextual conditionality of the individual's personal choices in the labour market. The theories on the individualʼs propensity to enlist are like, the theories of occupational choices, very heterogeneous and are part of a diverse range of scientific disciplines. Economic ones are primarily oriented towards resources for manning and the retention of military manpower and towards national economic conditions, while socio-psychological ones are more focused on the individualʼs characteristics and decisions, his/her values, and social pressures on him. With the transition to professional manning, the Slovenian armed forces entered the competitive labour market in which, according to the complexity of the work required, it hardly competes. Therefore, the study of Slovenian the propensity of youth to enlist has become, in addition to empirical verification of theoretical issues related to occupational choice in general, very topical for providing the appropriate and rational employment policy for the Slovenian armed forces.
