Human resources management - labor crisis

Abstract

The labor force is important in terms of the results obtained in the national economy. In general terms, labor, according to the theories of some economists, is a major factor in production. Along with the capital and financial-material resources, the work comes to complete, from a factorial point of view, the conditions for obtaining the best possible production. The labor force must be interpreted as part of the employed population, which operates on the basis of an employment contract. In the concrete situation of Romania, the number of employees is completed with the number of unemployed who together constitute the employed population in Romania. As a rule, the labor force must be recruited from the unemployed population, the population that is made up of the unemployed or is the active population, without fulfilling the conditions to pass into the category of the employed population. In this context, the territorial employment offices pursue persons registered as unemployed, who are thus considered or as a jobseeker. Labor market rigidity is becoming an increasingly important issue in the wake of the shocks associated with economic crises. The labor market has faced major changes in the context of the economic transition process, manifested by the reduction of the active and employed population, maintaining the unemployment rate at constant values. The labor market is generally affected by the limited capacity to create new jobs. This paper involved identifying issues related to the labor crisis, both globally and in Romania.
