The Competitiveness of the Czech Republic within the European Union from Labour Costs Perspective
Original language description
Governments are continuously trying to attract foreign direct investment and new ventures. One of their typical approaches to increase the country's competitiveness is through lower labour costs. This is the reason why the labour costs are the main focus in the last two decades. There has been a development of different methodologies and this in turn led to fragmentation of this area. The need for cost monitoring in the Czech Republic has led to introduction of a new methodology by Research Institute for Labour and Social Affairs (RILSA). This methodology is the main focus of this paper. Its main set of indicators consists of the labour costs, the relative proportion of labour to overall costs and the unit labour costs. The Czech Republic is compared to the European Union member countries and the United States in the period from 2007 to 2012. The European Union represents a partnership of countries that are on the contrary in the economic sense natural competitors. In this situation it is valuable to know the position of the Czech Republic against its direct competitors and its development.
