Today, as at all times, cadres decide everything, or almost everything. We are faced with the problem of staff shortages in all sectors of the market, which is due to many reasons, including the rapid development of economic and demographic decline in Russia. Indeed, in a time of fertility decline 1988-1994 and 1998-2002, not many wondered what would turn out to be 18-20 years. Also thanks to rapid development of the country, there are many jobs that require attracting more and more people.
According to the Minister of labour of the Russian Federation Maxim Topilin, for September 2013, in Russia there were about 1 million 800 thousand vacancies, but also the number of officially registered unemployed is about 944 thousand. But we understand that this is only the official data, that is not entirely true reality. After all, on account of unemployment up only part of the population that wishes to receive state benefits.
Rosstat reported the presence of 4 million unemployed citizens, in contrast to data from the Ministry of labour. Thus, we get that out of 143 million people, 4 million may not have a job. And the numbers would be more impressive, if we subtract from the data on population, number of children, teenagers and pensioners.
But let’s face it, what is the true reason that employers have a constant staff shortages? Is it really true not enough people, or maybe not enough people willing to work? After all, if you take all the jobs and forced to employ all who are looking for work, then the problem will be solved. But market conditions of modern business, dictate the rules and the selection of available jobs are not all.
Maybe it’s all about the employers who are really overstated, preferring to choose only the «best» is still quite young for ambitious goals and not so young, for a minimal investment in their training? And the rest who have not passed all possible interviews, tests, assessment, have not received proper education in his time, just remains to be unemployed and no matter how official is the status or condition in life.
Employers, in turn, to avoid crisis situations with human resources, create all possible database of candidates, internal and external candidate pools, many people decide to invest in the education of their employees and create entire corporate universities.
Undoubtedly, this provides great benefit, and many people who really want to develop professionally, to get a decent wage and to exert maximum efforts to get such an opportunity.
According to our observations, more than 80 percent of all employers are ready to conduct training and provide opportunities for career advancement and salary growth to its employees.
Consider the other side of the problem: tackling the causes of personnel lack of deeper, can not touch the topic is very subtle, social, and even personal — of the people themselves.
of Course, in periods of fertility decline, was born on fewer children. Only some of them could grow with a clear understand of what they want from life and how to achieve it, whether they need an education and career in principle. If earlier small children were asked what they want to be, those were the answers: an astronaut, a ballerina, a doctor, a pilot, driver of the tram… And now we often hear — «businessman, model, photographer, designer, bandit or better yet — don’t want to work, want to marry rich.»
there’s Coming another time, another generation of people, they have their goals and their views on the world. If current employers will not take into account changing players in this game, you run the risk of always be defeated and to experience the lack of people.
When this little part of the born once people still get into higher education then becomes a question of where to go next? And it is not always pleasant. It turns out that such a profession as an accountant or lawyer is not the demand, and the right engineers and vendors. So we have to look for a job does not like, and «where you get».
Many employers are faced with the fact that graduates of higher educational institutions often do not meet the practical requirements of business that have practically from zero to retrain «specialists» and it happens almost constantly. But that is a separate topic about the quality and practical utility of education in Russia.
And so, we partially and very superficially outlined the main problems in the field of human resources. Saw a not very pleasant for awareness regarding what is in the «human hunger» guilty fertility, and even fast-growing economic needs.
you’ll Need to pay attention to its development and development of their children, carefully choose a profession, not for fashion, but by vocation and interests. To set goals and do everything to achieve them. May be thanks to it, we in 15-20 years we will live in a society where everyone is proud of their work and employer.
