The future situation of the occupational group on the labour market
The chances of finding employment for this occupational group in 2009-2013 are slightly below-average. As compared to the current situation the chances will lower slightly. This is the result of competitive pressures and the concentration trend in industries that account for a substantial portion of jobs filled by employees belonging to this occupational group (retail, wholesale, hotels and restaurants). These industries may more often witness small enterprises merging or closing down. Moreover, it is expected that retail chains will expand into smaller towns. This will lead to concentration and small retailers will be pushed out of the market. As another consequence of the crisis companies will seek to decrease management and administration costs. This, again, will result in a decrease in employment in this occupational group. Moreover, new small and medium-sized enterprises will not emerge quickly enough so as to affect the development of demand for this occupational group.
