Hundreds of thousands of Bulgarians neither work nor study – 2024-05-02 04:13:48

Hundreds of thousands do not study or work

Hundreds of thousands of people are looking for employers in our country to hire. And at the same time, hundreds of thousands in the country do not work or study. In this regard, employers in the tourism industry are asked who will work by the sea in the summer.

“For the first time, we are also observing the retention of demand in the industrial sphere and production. Fewer people are being sought than what has been traditional in recent years. In addition to the slight slowdown seen in the IT and outsourcing sector, unemployment has stabilized at levels just above 5% and those 160,000 who are out of work appear to have no way to make ends meet in the labor market. The situation is in short supply and needs fresh blood and new people from outside”.

People management specialist Georgi Parvanov said this in the studio of Bulgaria ON AIR.

However, procedures for importing labor from third countries remain quite complex.

“In other times, Bulgaria was an importer of labor, about 50,000 Vietnamese worked in the country. Then, unfortunately, we became an exporter for quite a long time. We are currently returning to the role of importer. Our embassies abroad are not yet prepared and do not have the resources to quickly issue visas. In some key markets where there are qualified people, for example the Philippines and Kyrgyzstan, there are no Bulgarian embassies,” Parvanov explained.

According to him, they are looking for people in the sectors of agriculture, production, construction, medicine and others.
