The paper brings analyses of the transitions betwee n employment, unemployment and inactivity during and after the period of the financial and economic crisis, using longitudinal micro-data from the Euro pean Union Survey on Income and Living Conditions. The empirical analysis consi sts of two steps. An overall picture is obtained by computing transition probabi lities and Shorrocks’ summary mobility index. Effects of personal and household c haracteristics are explored through multinomial logit models. Our results confi rm the low level of labour market mobility in Slovakia and the role of some de terminants highlighted by previous research. In addition, analysis takes into account several new determinants that have not been included in the previous a nalyses.

This paper explores the role spatial heterogeneity in the EU regions’ convergence income process. For this purpose we tested in come convergence hypothesis of the 245 NUTS 2 European Union regions during the period 2003 – 2014. We used spatial econometric approach which allowed an explicit modelling of both spatial effects: spatial heterogeneity and spatial autocorrelation. Our results showed an appropriate consideration of the rol of spatial effects. First, we found that the rate of economic growth in the re gion is not only affected by the exogenous characteristics of the region, but also potentially by the rate of economic growth in neighbouring regions. Secondly, estimated spatial regime model identified two spatial regimes – convergence clubs. The regions under the first spatial convergence regime included econo mically „weaker” regions (mainly regions of post-socialist countries, region s of Portugal, Spain, Greece and southern regions of Italy) and these regions are converging separately from the rest of regions of the EU.

The paper is devoted on the wage differences betwee n men and women in Baltic countries. It aims to estimate the unexplain ed gender pay gap cleaned at least partially by effect of intra household specia lization on wage. To estimate the unexplained gender pay gap, we use European Uni on Statistics on Income and Living Conditions (EU-SILC) data and apply the Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition accompanied by matching procedure. The resul ts show that to take intrahousehold specialization into account led to a decr ease in the unexplained gender wage differences however wage differences betwe en men and women persists. The unexplained gender pay gap, which could be ue to wage discrimination against women reaches approximately 11 percent in Latvia and Lithuania. It is significantly higher in Estonia where it amou nts about 21 percent to disad-

The aim of the study is to investigate the impact of different focus in customer management strategy on business performance. Strate gies investigated in the paper are IT-focused strategy, data warehouse-focus ed strategy, and integration-focused strategy. The effect of the strategies is examined in relation to both short-term and long-term performance. Combination o f questionnaire and individual interviews was used to explore the particula r dimensions of strategy focus. The sample for empirical research consisted of 195 companies from seven industry sectors in Slovakia. The findings show tha t different focus in strategy may bring different effects in performance outcomes . We also find that combining certain management styles may generate performa nce dvantage.
