Struggling to find employees: making lists and bringing in from abroad

On Wednesday, the cabinet approved the Ministry of Interior’s proposal to form a list of the most demanded professions. It includes 40 professions the public sector is lacking. It has been decided that specialists on the list will be granted simplified employment conditions. Furthermore, they will be granted double the wages of professions not on the list. Solely forming this list will not solve the lack of staff in the country, the chairwoman of the Lithuanian Trade Union Confederation (LPSK) says.
