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 above average. As compared to the development in the 2003-2008 period these chances will remain about the same. Most employees in this occupational group are employed in construction - a sector severely stricken by the economic crisis. On the other hand, occupations such as roofer, floor assembler, insulation mechanic, glazier, plumber or electrician have for long witnessed a decrease in interest on the part of young people and, despite the reduction in construction output, there will not be enough of them at the labour market. For this reason the employment prospects for this group are still ranked as good.
