The workinromania.gov.ro portal is expected to be fully operational by mid-November, according to the Employers' Association of Labor Importers (PIFM). The Ministry of Labor plans to issue two ministerial orders to modify the methodology for determining the list of shortage professions and to introduce an expanded list, increasing the number of occupations from 289 to nearly 400. This expansion aims to provide more options for employers and facilitate the recruitment of foreign workers. The portal's previous downtime caused significant disruptions for employers, particularly in construction and hospitality sectors, leading to financial losses and recruitment delays. PIFM emphasizes the need for urgent revisions to the emergency ordinance governing labor recruitment to ensure a more efficient process.
