Romania, third worldwide for deficit of skilled employees
Only two countries in the world - Japan and Taiwan - have bigger difficulties than Romania in finding skilled employees.
In Romania, the share of companies that face this problem amounts to 72%, according to a study by ManpowerGroup published on Thursday. The biggest problems are finding skilled workers, engineers, and production operators.
The share of companies facing problems in finding skilled employees in Romania is double compared to the EU average, said Corina-Bianca Gonteanu, Manpower marketing director for Europe.
The number of jobless people in Romania reached 521,200 in November last year, a minimum level after the crisis in 2008, and the unemployment rate dropped to 5.7%, according to recent data from the National Statistics Institute (INS).
