A high unemployment rate represents an endangering of favourable economic development of a given territory which invokes deterioration of the state of level of living of inhabitants living there. In the Czech Republic as a whole, the unemployment rate decreased in 2004-2007; there was a slight increase in 2008, and in 2009 the growth was more significant. If we evaluate the unemployment situation in regional point of view, the situation is very differentiated in particular regions and in some districts it even exceeds 10 % at present. Than, there is necessary to introduce such measures to be able to set right the unfavourable state because besides the generally worsened economic situation in a region it can happen that inhabitants of the region will migrate into areas with better job opportunities. It would subsequently lead to an economic and demographic fall of this-ways endangered areas. The paper deals with a statistical analysis of development tendencies of unemployment rate in particular CR regions. Its aim is to determine positions of regions from the given point of view, so a definition of region groups with favourable development and endangered regions.
