| Description | Demographic consequences, an insufficient adaptation of educational system and other factors effects deepening the gap between demand and supply in sectors with high added value. These industries record the largest increase in the current labour market and require a highly-skilled labour forces. Supply of qualified forces can not keep the pace, in many cases, with demand and this situation hinders the growth of economies. Therefore, individual states, regions, and cities create their own strategies for attracting foreign workers as a solution to this situation. A major problem in the Czech Republic is this regard is especially insufficient and unconnected statistics concerning foreign workers. Individual offices and departments keep their own databases and statistics only regarding their responsibilities. Thus, the data are not integral, often overlapping, or worse, totally missing. The aim of this paper is to analyse and evaluate selected management approaches to these data by individual ministries and institutions such as Labour offices, Czech statistical office, and others. Target also includes evaluating the differences in individual statistics comparing the regions. |
