Резиме: Погоршање индикатора тржишта рада је реланост са којом се данас сусрећу многе земље. Стопа незапослености у Републици Српској константно расте већ низ година и тренутно је 2,5 пута већа од просјечене стопе незапослености у Европској унији. У оваквим околностима до изражаја долази значај активних мјера политике запошљавања, при чему многе земље акценат стављају на унапређење квалитета радне снаге. За потребе овог рада урађено је кратко истраживање чији је основни циљ било прикупљање информација о ставовима послодаваца у погледу понуде радне снаге на тржишту рада Републике Српске, те сагледавање потреба послодаваца у погледу појединих компентенција запослених. На бази добијених резултата, теоријског прегледа посматране проблематике и сагледавања мјера за подстицање запошљавања које су планиране за неколико наредних година, аутори су дефинисали неколико смјерница за ублажавање структурне незапослености. Суштински, оне се огледају у интензивнијем и континуираном укључивању послодаваца и других заинтересованих страна у процес креирања образовне понуде, развоју инфраструктуре за образовање одраслих, те стављању акцента на развој компетенција а не занимања.Summary: Deterioration of labour market indicators is reality with which many countries are facing today. Over the last few years unemployment rate in the Republic of Srpska continuously increasing and currently is 2.5 times higher than the average unemployment rate in the European Union. Under these circumstances, the importance of active employment policy measures coming to the forefront. Many countries through the employment policy emphasize improvement of labour quality. For the purpose of this paper it was conducted a brief survey whose main aims were to collect information on the attitudes of employers about labour supply on the labour market of the Republic of Srpska, and to understand the needs of employers in terms of competence of employees. Based on the obtained research results, theoretical review of the observed issues, and review of the official measures for encouraging employment, which are planned for the next few years, the authors have defined a few guidelines for the alleviation of structural unemployment. Essentially, defined guidelines are reflected in the following: more intensive and continuous involvement of employers and other stakeholders in the process of creating educational supply, development of infrastructure for adult education, and putting the emphasis on the development of competencies rather than development of occupations.

Abstract: The wages system in Romania is a subject of great importance. Although, apparently, the situation on the labour market has improved during the last years, compared to the member countries of the European Union there are many problems in Romania, due to an inadequate structure in the national economy, the way in which privatization and economy restructuring were performed, the mass emigration labour market, which have generated imbalances between labour supply and demand. The paper aims at highlighting the changes in the salary system in Romania in the period of post-accession to the European Union. An analysis was conducted, the official statistical data on the evolution of the average net monthly salary were detailed, differentiated by size classes of economic agents, by gender and by sectors of the national economy.

AbstractThis paper shows how the German Council of Economic Experts (GCEE) determines Germany’s potential output, and compares the results with those of the European Commission. The approach of the European Commission is a natural benchmark, as it provides the basis for the deficit and debt rules of the European Union. In comparison with the European Commission’s method, the GCEE’s method places greater emphasis on demographic factors in estimating labour input. Additionally, both approaches differ regarding how they estimate the structural unemployment rate and total factor productivity. Finally, this paper discusses the limitations of, and the different options for estimating potential output.

Labour Market Position

Studies of the scale of unemployment in Poland and in Europe conducted in recent years lead to the conclusion that one of the largest and growing problems of the modern labour market is the unemployment rate among young people. An unfavourable phenomenon related to this issue, which is increasingly often appearing in public debate, is the rising unemployment of graduates. Therefore, it is important to attempt to identify related phenomena in today’s job market, and one of such phenomena is the emergence of a new type of employee in the labour market, a member of the precarious class. The analysis aims to present the origins, nature and scale of the precariat phenomenon in Poland. The issue is described from the perspective of the labour market position of a selected social group, i.e. young people entering the labour market after finishing their education. The study attempted to identify factors that affect this phenomenon and the characteristics confirming the sense of its separateness in the labour market.

Employment Education

The phenomenon of NEET (not in employment, education or training), which was developed in the European Union, has not been comprehensively investigated in Poland. This problem concerns the situation of young people outside the employment sphere and the sphere of education, which makes them particularly vulnerable to social exclusion. Different rates of young people in the labour market, particularly the unemployment rate, according to the European Union proved to be insufficient. In most countries the scale of NEET is not marginal and there are always variations within a given country. But there are also some additional difficulties in NEET analysis such as different legal conditions between Polish and other EU countries concerning the compulsory education or other forms of obligatory learning and heterogeneity of the age categories. This article concerns the initial characteristics of the NEET category in Poland in comparison to the European Union.

The Impact

Ιn the last decade, there has been a widespread expansion of both precarious work and precarious forms of employment (such as temporary and low-qualified jobs, seasonal and part-time jobs etc.), in which a growing share of young people work. The impact of precarious work on young people is likely to be permanent, while it seems to affect (even over-determine) their life courses. Non-smooth and early transitions into labour market are very likely to worsen progressively their long-term life chances (Lodovici & Semenza, 2012: 7). Undoubtedly, the long-lasting global economic Crisis and the subsequent Recession, has heavily affected the state of play in the labour market worldwide, provoking severe modifications both in the field of employment and countries’ social cohesion. Based on the above mentioned, the paper deals with precarious work in general, while it emphasizes precarious work among youth. It initially captures, briefly, the state of play in terms of the impact of the Crisis on the widening of the phenomenon of precarious work and then it focuses on theoretical insights and critical conceptual definitions concerning precariousness in the labour market. Further, based on secondary quantitative -data analysis, it analyses the key- parameters and facets of precarious work (focusing on youth) in the European Union and, mainly, in Greece. Additionally, it briefly presents parameters of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on precariousness in Greece. Finally, the paper explores the correlation between precarious work and social vulnerability, especially among young people. The present paper is based on an ongoing Research Project. More specifically, this research is co-financed by Greece and the European Union (European Social Fund- ESF) through the Operational Programme «Human Resources Development, Education and Lifelong Learning 2014-2020» in the context of the project “Precarious Work and Youth in today’s Greece: secondary quantitative analysis, qualitative filed research and research-based policy proposals” (MIS 5048510).
