Description
Summary:The policies designed to combat unemployment encourage salary migration from decliningindustries to expanding ones and to specializations that trigger labor market demands. Somemeasures should mainly aim at avoiding long-term unemployment, providing financial support tovulnerable groups and preventing the erosion of the population’s trust in reforms. The measures ofreducing labor supply policies initially focused on older workers. Romania has adopted a series ofrules on early retirement, but it should be noted that early retirement schemes are difficult to applyon a large scale because they are particularly costly. They can be applied rather as an ancillarymethod in the event of mass redundancies or when the long-term unemployed are close to theretirement age.
