Developing a New European Indicator of Potential Skill Shortages https://d.repec.org/n?u=RePEc:iza:izadps:dp18133&r=&r=eur
"β¦ estimate that approximately 2% of job vacancies in the European Union are likely to experience skill shortages.
β¦ there is substantial variation across occupations, ranging from 5.1% for ICT professionals to approximately zero in more elementary occupations. There is also substantial variation in the estimated incidences of potential skill shortages at member state level, ranging from over 10% in Luxembourg to under 1% in Estonia and Poland.
β¦ analysis shows that occupations that are most likely to experience #skillShortages also tend to experience relatively high rates of changes in skill requirements over time"
