摘要:The aim of the paper is to investigate the relationship between official employment, official unemployment and unofficial employment in Romania for the period 2000-2014, using LFS survey data. This type of method quantifies the persons working in unofficial economy, but is not able to capture those who are employed in both sectors (formal and informal).The empirical results reveal the existence of a negative relationship between activity rates and the estimated value of unofficial employment. Correlation coefficients for the period 2000-2014 highlighted the presence of a negative relationship between official employment and unofficial employment, respectively official unemployment and unofficial employment. Using this method who has its limitations, the Romanian unofficial employment is most probably underestimated.
