Abstract

Human resources are a primary source for development of a country. The importance of social policies and human resources for social development is a matter of particular consideration in today's globalizing society. Social development, human capital, human resources are factors that are related. The problem of the country's social development is a topical issue throughout the European Union. When analyzing the development of social development of the country, several concepts and methods are applied in practice. The aim of the article is to compare the development of social development in Slovakia using a composite indicator. Composite indicators as a tool for ranking objects are becoming more and more popular. The article describes various methods of its construction, their advantages and disadvantages. The construction of this aggregate indicator is based on the application of more complex and multidimensional statistical methods. The result of the statistical survey is a finding of steady growth of social development in Slovakia. The close negative dependence between social development and unemployment is illustrated.
