The contribution focuses on the current economic situation, especially on low unemployment, which has an impact on the labor market situation in the Czech Republic. Generally, low unemployment is a positive phenomenon in the economy, but what if unemployment is so low that organizations and businesses cannot find high-quality employees? Today, it is already proven that effective using of human capital within economic operators significantly improves their economic performance and, as far as public sector organizations are concerned, it improves public services. Well educated and motivated employees who are not overloaded can become the "brand" of individual healthcare facilities and a human factor as the source of the wealth and prosperity of state and non-state healthcare facilities. Our attention is therefore focused on selected health care organization, where there has been an acute shortage of medical and non-medical staff. The paper deals with the analysis of low unemployment, which is called the personal capacities crisis, its causes and its consequences as well. How to solve this critical shortage of health care staff? So far, the quality of Czech health care has been very high, but if this situation is maintained, the quality of patient care can be fundamentally endangered. The conclusion of the paper contains suggestions and recommendations on how to make this area more effective.
