Abstract
Masked unemployment represents the transition between the employment and open unemployment. That's employment without the expected economic results. Sometimes masked employment means only the rural overpopulation which is totally wrong. In fact, masked unemployment can exist in agriculture as well as in other activities. It can appear also in the social sector and in all cases in which the economic results of work can be measured.
The main difference between the masked and open unemployment lies in the fact that the latter is easy to register and the former is not openly manifested. In general, there are two main methods to register masked unemployment — normative approach connected with the work output and with the value of work paid in the form of a salary.
The first 'shows how much work is needed for the appropriate production, and the second shows what is a level of employment needed for the appropriate amount of salary. In the article, the author uses the second method to register the masked unemployment.
