The group's research basically addresses evolutions in the Hungarian and Central-East European labor markets, but it extends to issues in education research, informal economy, pension systems and regional inequalities. Though to a lesser extent, the team members also work on theoretical and micro-econometric issues. Several group members have been involved in the evaluation of Hungarian employment policies, and made expert work for both Hungarian and international organizations. The team publishes its own working paper series and a year-book (The Hungarian Labor Market, first published in 2000). The team had major contribution to the development of the data bank of the Institute comprising of harmonized waves of regular surveys.
