This article deals with an analysis of the relationship between the unem-ployment rate and the number of vacancies in the labour market. This relationship can be characterized by the Beveridge curve. The article explores, whether there is a long-term or short-term relationship between variables. Furthermore, this relation-ship in the labour market is expanded with the impact of the rate of the unemployed earning unemployment benefit, the rate of unemployed graduates and the rate of un-employed women. The vector error correction model was used for this purpose to determine both long-term and short-term causal relationships. To create the resulting model, the econometric methodology was used, namely unit root tests, Granger cau-sality for the determination of statistically significant relationships, information cri-teria and the Johansen cointegration test.The data used have the character of quar-terly time series in the period from 2002Q1 to 2018Q4.EViews software version 9 was usedfor the calculations.
