Design/Methodology/Approach: The analysis assesses the sustainability of subsidies in the period 2012-2016 based on data provided by the Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs. Logistic regression was used to identify the key factors. Findings: Research shows that in times of economic growth, policies to support the self-employment of the unemployed are a particularly effective form of active labour market policy, especially in the more developed regions. On the contrary, when serving as a business support tool, they lead to very low survival rates of the subsidised companies compared to results of other studies. In terms of factors affecting this sustainability, the length of unemployment, the amount of support, as well as regional characteristics emerge as the most significant. Practical implications: The results allow for a better definition of the conditions for providing subsidies to the unemployed to start a business in the future, while also showing that this instrument leads to employment retention rather than to the promotion of entrepreneurial activities. Originality/value: The research was carried out under specific conditions that had been little explored so far. The policy was evaluated at a time of strong economic growth accompanied by a significant reduction in unemployment. Also worth noting is that it was carried out in a country with some of the most pronounced regional disparities, which made it possible to compare the impact of the policy in different starting conditionsNamen: Namen prispevka je analizirati dejavnike vzdržnosti javne politike, ki s pomočjo subvencij novoustanovljenim podjetjem na Slovaškem pomaga iz brezposelnosti. Zasnova/Metodologija/Pristop: Prispevek na podlagi podatkov slovaškega ministrstva za delo in socialne zadeve ocenjuje vzdržnost subvencij v obdobju 2012–2016. Za opredelitev ključnih dejavnikov je bila uporabljena logistična regresija. Ugotovitve: Raziskave kažejo, da so politike za podporo samozaposlitvi brezposelnih v času gospodarske rasti še posebej učinkovita oblika aktivne politike zaposlovanja, zlasti v razvitejših regijah. Če pa subvencije služijo zgolj kot orodje za podporo poslovanju, je stopnja preživetja subvencioniranih podjetij precej nižja, kot so ugotavljale druge študije. Med najpomembnejšimi dejavniki, ki vplivajo na vzdržnost, se kažejo trajanje brezposelnosti, višina subvencije in regionalne značilnosti. Vpliv v praksi: Rezultati omogočajo boljšo opredelitev pogojev za zagotavljanje subvencij brezposelnim za ustanovitev podjetja v prihodnosti in hkrati kažejo, da je ta instrument bolj učinkovit kot sredstvo za ohranjanje zaposlitve kot za spodbujanje podjetništva. Izvirnost/Vrednost: Raziskava je potekala v posebnih pogojih, ki so bili do sedaj le malo raziskani. Politika je bila proučevana v obdobju močne gospodarske rasti, ki jo je spremljalo občutno zmanjšanje brezposelnosti. Omeniti velja tudi, da je bila raziskava izvedena v državi z izrazitimi regionalnimi razlikami, kar je omogočilo primerjavo vpliva tovrstne politike ob različnih izhodiščihTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaUniverza v Ljubljani, Fakulteta za upravo
