The future situation of the occupational group on the labour market
The chances of finding employment for this group in 2009-2013 are at the average level, which means a slight worsening as compared to the current situation. Although the housing, office and industrial construction has been relatively strongly affected by the economic downturn, demand for these occupations is maintained by major investments in transport and water management infrastructure and in the expansion of shopping centres outside large cities in the CR. Moreover, graduates of the relevant study programmes opt for jobs in other industries as they are put off by lower pay levels in construction. These low pay levels are the consequence of the presence of a large number of foreign workers for whom the pay offered is still motivating. In the upcoming years there will be a rapid decline in the number of graduates of secondary programmes focusing on construction, woodworking and operation of construction machinery. This means that the fallout of the economic slump will affect the overall prospects of this occupational group to a lesser degree.
