Comparative Analysis and Disparities between Regions regarding Romania’s Labor Market

Abstract

Nowadays, Romania is confronting a population both declining and ageing population, phenomenon common to the majority of the EU Member States. This points to a likely future reduction of pupils and students in the education system and to a growing demand for health and social services. The ageing process will have negative consequences on the entire economy if accompanied by an increase of inactive persons that will represent a burden for the social insurance system.
