Skilled workers worth their weight in gold in Poland
17:21
The latest results of the 'Barometer of Professions', a nationwide survey prepared annually by the Provincial Labor Office in Kraków on behalf of the Ministry of Family, Labor and Social Policy, indicate deficits in 29 professions. 12 of these fall into the category generally described as 'skilled workers'. In the industrial and construction sector, these include carpenters, joiners, roofers and sheet metal workers, electricians, and electrical fitters, finishing work employees, fitters of building installations, bricklayers and plasterers, operators and mechanics of earth-moving equipment.
Specialists analyzing the labor market estimate that the shortage of jobs in the construction industry at the national level could even reach up to 100,000 positions. In today's times of dynamic development in construction, one of the key problems the industry faces is the deficit of qualified workers, especially experienced designers.
