EVOLUTION OF THE LABOUR MARKET IN BIHOR BETWEEN 2008 -2018
Abstract
This paper aims at analysing the labour market in Romania from the perspective of interregional disparities. In this sense we elaborate some INSSE and EUROSTAT statistical data which report to this type of market. In this analysis we mainly used the method of dispersion. In order to recognize the types of positive and negative effects of the national, sectorial and regional factors upon the employed population and the number of employees.The indicators monitored in the paper were the following: employed population, number of employees, activity ratio, unemployment ratio, job vacancy ratio. The analysed period included the years between 2008 and 2017. In the Northwest Region, expressive economic growth in the last decade has not continued at a progressive rate of employment, although labor productivity has resolved. Also, employment circumstance have steadily decreased, reducing the percentage of active population. Statistical labor market data put the Northwest Region at a disadvantage compared to he EU25; however this is a reasonable position in relation to the national average., The labour market on the national but also and regional level is determinated by regress, delayed reactions, reduced flexibility in the dynamics of the economy, the inability to create new employment opportunities mainly in branches with high added value. This article tries to capture the evolutions of the rural economy of Bihor county, whilst appreciating the matters within the broader context of the six region of economic development and socio-legal context in which to place economic and social life of the rural Romanian during the post-communist period. Although with a very important agricultural potential, both at the country level and also territorial, this potential has not produced economic development, but underdevelopment, on the background of a rural subsistence economy, and this economy tends to become chronic underdevelopment, as a result of diminishing in agricultural productions without the appearance of alternative strategies for the development of services of small rural industries, rural or agricultural farming or associative systems
