Romanian Labor Market Analysis: Workforce Shortage and GlobalWorker’s Strategic Solutions

Romanian Labor Market Analysis: Workforce Shortage and GlobalWorker’s Strategic Solutions

Timisoara, Romania, 2025-04-13 — /EPR Network/ — Romania is facing a severe and ongoing labor shortage that spans across nearly every industry. According to ANOFM (2024), thousands of job positions remain unfilled consistently, with 35% of employers reporting significant recruitment difficulties. In response to this growing crisis, GlobalWorker offers effective international recruitment solutions to help companies navigate and overcome labor deficits.

Root Causes of Romania’s Workforce Shortage

Unfavorable Demographics:
Romania has one of the fastest aging populations in the European Union, with 27% of citizens over 60 years old. Additionally, over 5.6 million Romanians are currently working abroad (Eurostat, 2023), leaving a significant gap in the domestic labor pool.

Skill Mismatch and Educational Gaps:
A staggering 40% of graduates do not work in the field they studied (National Institute of Statistics), and only 15% pursue technical disciplines such as IT, engineering, or construction—sectors with rising labor demands.

Increased Demand in Key Sectors:
EU funding for infrastructure and renewable energy projects is further increasing the need for skilled labor, particularly in construction, logistics, and manufacturing.

Economic Impact of the Labor Shortage

• Loss of Productivity: Romanian companies report delivery delays and added costs ranging from 15–20% due to staff shortages (CNIPMMR Survey).
• Wage Inflation: Competitive pressure has driven up salaries, particularly in construction, where wages increased by 22% in 2023 alone.
• Investment Risks: Large-scale national and international investments (highways, energy parks) are at risk due to lack of human resources.
