The future situation of the occupational group on the labour market
The employment prospects for this group in 2009-2013 are at the average level, but they will deteriorate over time. The implications of the economic downturn are only temporary. However, employment in this occupational group is threatened, above all, by structural changes in the economy - an outflow of employers to countries with cheaper labour will increase in intensity in year-on-year terms. Up to a certain time the outlook for this occupational group will be improved by a decline in the number of graduates, and by a gradual reduction in the use of foreign workers that is already taking place.
