labor Shortage

If you are an employer yourself, then you too are facing a shortage of manpower. The monthly unemployment rate in Croatia has risen by 7.4% since November last year. Many companies have faced the problem of stagnant growth. Joblio will help you find and hire motivated workers. Our database offers professionals from 45 different industries who are ready to work.

Labor market situation

Chronic labor shortages in Croatia continue to grow, and it is  starting to harm the economy.  During the first 5 months of 2022, over 7,000 companies applied to the HZZ (Croatian Employment Service) for a permit to employ foreign workers in 300 different occupations.  Labor shortages are a major problem in Croatia and are growing every year.  According to estimates, there is a continuous shortage of about 60,000 workers in Croatia.

It is important to understand that Croatia’s economic growth is not possible without an adequate workforce, but it is important that quality exceeds quantity.

Seasonal work in Croatia

Season work Croatia

Despite the fact that COVID-19 restrictions have been lifted in most countries of the world, Croatia still needs seasonal workers.  The main reason is the growing emigration of young people to European Union countries.  Service workers and construction workers are most sought out.

The Croatian labor market faces a labor shortage in the following sectors:

  • shipbuilding,
  • tourism and catering,
  • culture,
  • transportation,
  • health and social care,
  • food, processing and metal industries,
  • agriculture and forestry
  • IT sector
