Резюме: Bulgaria's accession to the European Union in 2007 led to changes in the political, cultural, social and economic life of Bulgarians. The labour market is at the heart of the economy and the political and social life of society. In this statistical essay, we present the impact of Bulgaria's accession to the European Union on the labour market. To this end, we consider some of the main factors that have the greatest impact on the labour market. Its dynamics are presented through indicators for the population, able-bodied, unemployed and employed persons, as well as employment and unemployment rates. The consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic on it are analyzed by comparing the measures and unemployment rates in Bulgaria, Romania and Greece. From all the considered data, we can conclude that the European Union has a favourable effect on the Bulgarian labour market.
