The highest number of vacancies in the country’s labour market are in the IT and communications sector, where companies are looking to fill some 2,900 vacancies; however, the administrative and service support sector took second place in this regard, with a 2.4 % proportion of jobs waiting to be filled.

As for the manufacturing sector, the labour shortages have reached an all-time high. KSH figures show that the largest manufacturing operations in Hungary have labour shortages of some 2.1 %, around 14,000 vacancies, most of which are in the automotive manufacturing, where around 2,600 positions need to be filled.
Retailing chains are also struggling to hire enough employees. The labour shortages have reached the point where Tesco invited trade union leaders to attend the crisis council to address the issue. The multinational grocery chain reportedly intended to solve the situation by hiring temporary workers, which culminated in tensions as temporary workers were paid more than regular employees.
Raise the wages lower the taxes dumb f-cks
There’s a critical shortage at slave labour rates, ( 275 Euros/month) and under. Honestly, the west wants to treat east europe as a slave labour market, because they cant control their inflated rates. So they expect the rest to adopt the EURO so that their economies sink even faster like Greece, France, Spain, …… Instead the geniouses allow in so called ‘skilled’ illegal migrants with promises of cars, cash, homes, etc. only to find they cant do squat. So they Germany, Sweden, Belgium start to try to dump what they deem as unqualified, more like unskilled laziness that will sit on goevernment handouts back to the countries that were trying to hold back all this trash. Europe might yet split in two at this rate. The east will be checking for illegal fence dodgers from the East, South, and now West borders. Thanks Mama Merkel and Junkhead.
