Abstract
The problem of inequality has become increasingly important in recent years, increasing its weight in addressing the problems of economic and regional development lagging behind. Although income inequality in Slovakia is among the lowest in Europe, there are regions in Slovakia where income inequality is high. The aim of the paper is to contribute to the expansion of knowledge in the area of income inequality in self-governing regions in the Slovak Republic. In the paper we examine the causes of inequalities, measure the levels of inequality over the selected time period based on the development of indicators of net money income and household expenditures, average disposable equivalent household income of indicators S80 / S20, Gini coefficient and poverty risk ratio for 2014-2018.

Úvod Nerovnosť sa vo väčšine európskych krajín v dôsledku hospodárskej krízy zo začiatku nového tisícročia prehĺbila
Cieľom Európskeho piliera sociálnych práv, ktorý predstavila Európska komisia v apríli 2017 je uplatňovať spravodlivosť v každodennom živote občanov bez ohľadu na to, či občan študuje, pracuje, hľadá si zamestnanie alebo je na dôchodku
Summary
The problem of inequality has become increasingly important in recent years, increasing its weight in addressing the problems of economic and regional development lagging behind. V roku 2018 dosiahol ukazovateľ príjmovej nerovnosti v EÚ-28 hodnotu 5,17, kým v SR iba 3,03. Aj miera chudoby je na Slovensku nižšia ako je priemer EÚ. Skúmame príčiny nerovností a sústreďujeme pozornosť aj na meranie úrovne nerovnosti za vybrané časové obdobie rokov 2014-2018 na základe vývoja ukazovateľov čisté peňažné príjmy a výdavky domácností, priemerný disponibilný ekvivalentný príjem domácností, ukazovateľ S80 / S20, Gini koeficient a miera rizika chudoby.
