Romania faces a shortage of skilled workers, particularly electricians and plumbers, despite salaries reaching 5,500 lei. Companies struggle to find qualified candidates, leading to project delays. The number of job vacancies is decreasing, indicating a mismatch between job seekers and required qualifications. Many experienced workers have left for better opportunities abroad, while fewer young people are entering vocational training. The perception of vocational education as a lesser option contributes to this issue. Solutions include enhancing practical training and fostering partnerships between schools and businesses to attract youth to skilled trades.
