Relationship between the Unemployment Rate and Detected Offenses in the Czech Republic

Original language description

The article examines the relationship between the unemployment rate and detected offenses in the Czech Republic. It verifies the hypothesis that the share of unemployed persons affects the number of detected crimes in the Czech Republic. The influence of the unemployment rate is verified within seven basic types of detected offenses, i.e. Violent acts, Moral acts, Property acts, Other criminal offenses, Other crimes, Economic acts and Military criminal offenses. The hypothesis was verified by a correlation analysis, Pearson’s correlation coefficient based on the data of the Czech Republic in the period 2005-2016. The hypothesis was partially verified as dependence was found just for Other criminal offenses. It was very high, significant at 1% level. Significant dependence was not proven for other six categories of basic types of detected offenses. The category Other criminal offenses was tested further on for six specific crimes, i. e. Hooliganism, Spray Painting, Endangering Moral Development of Children, Illicit Manufacture and Distribution of Psychotropic Substances and Poisons for others, Fires, Obstructing of Enforcement of an Official Decision. High dependence, significant at 5% level was found for Hooliganism and very high dependence, significant at 1% level was proven for Obstructing of Enforcement of an Official Decision. Significant dependence was not proven for the other crimes.
