This article addresses the issue of econometric approaches and necessary data support systems for monitoring of youth labor market in Poland. Based on the panel data of 16 voivodeships for the 2000─2010 period, it is established that higher edu-cation is the factor behind a decrease in the youth unemployment rate, regardless of the type of the institution ─ public or private. While there is a standard inverse rela-tionship between the output growth and youth unemployment, it is likely that higher investment rate has an opposite effect. Our analysis highlights importance of several key policy issues to addressing current high youth unemployment rate in Poland, as educational mismatch or job search problems. In this regard, necessary data pro-cessing framework is outlined.
