The article deals with issues of spread of long-term unemployment in Latvia regions, availability of regular statistical data and how to promote reduction of long-term unemployment rate in Latvia regions. Regional aspects of long term unemployment could appear in different units of local territory (districts, towns, municipalities) due to economic, social and cultural factors. How in perspectives of different economic and sociological theories could be interpreted problem of long term unemployment in Latvia regions? The absence of flexibility in labour market may prevent development of employment rate in Latvia regions. Flexibility is the feature that characterizes changes in relations among elements of labour market in post-industrial period. It is the key concept to indicate changes in labour market in post-fordist theory.

Absence of flexibility is one of barriers that prohibit solving problem of long-term employment in Latvia regions.
