Abstract

Predmet analize ovog rada je stanje prerađivačke industrije u Primorsko-goranskoj županiji bazirano na odabranim ekonomskim pokazateljima u odnosu na stanje u Republici Hrvatskoj. Cilj rada je odrediti korelaciju među dobivenim ekonomskim rezultatima i čimbenicima obrazovne strukture uposlenih u prerađivačkoj industriji. U svrhu ovog rada provedeno je terensko istraživanje putem upitnika kojeg su popunili članovi uprava najvažnijih industrijskih tvrtki u županiji, a čiji su rezultati prikazani u ovom radu. Analiza je pokazala da je nivo korelacije između obrazovne strukture uposlenih i određenih ekonomskih indikatora pojedinih grana industrije nizak.
