Romanian labour market face to face with the economic crises

摘要

The labour market, as a subsystem of the economy, is more vulnerable than the other markets as against the negative influences generated by the evolution of the economic environment. Considering these, we can say that the Romanian labour market represents a good example to demonstrate how difficult it is to create the conditions that could make labour supply more adaptive and flexible in a very dynamic business environment, to satisfy a very exigent labour demand taking into account the technology evolution and to built new and high quality work places. In the last almost two decades, the evolution of the Romanian labour market was spectacular. But, the global economic crises, which have begun in the end of 2008, will reduce the economic activity not only in Romania. As effects of this evolution, the labour market will be strong imbalance, a lot of Romanian workers will return for a safe work place, but the national economy will be not capable to help them. The subject of this paper is to make some appreciations about what could happen in the future and how the Romanian firms and authorities could react to one of the biggest issue of economic crises, respectively the unemployment and the instability of the work places in a very disturbing economic environment.
