June 8, Pozirk. <\/em><\/strong>Job openings in Belarus grew by more than 10,000 in just one month and amount to 210,941 as of June 8, according to the state employment services’ data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The city of Minsk leads with more than 58,000 vacancies, while the Mahilo\u016d region posted the least number of job openings \u2013 some 21,600.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few weeks ago, Minister of Labor and Social Security Natalla Pa\u016dlu\u010denka linked the increase to recent legislation requiring employers to list vacancies on the official job bank website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More than 50 percent of the advertised jobs require secondary education or vocational training, Pa\u016dlu\u010denka said. Construction, agriculture and healthcare workers are in high demand, which is also reflected in wage growth, she noted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More than 500,000 people have left the country since 2020 fearing political reprisals and for economic reasons, experts estimate. Last year, Ta\u0107ciana Brancevi\u010d, a deputy economy minister, described a massive skilled labor outflow from Belarus as a strategic challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Job openings in Belarus have surged from 18,315 to 161,281 over the past 30 years under Alaksandar \u0141uka\u0161enka, according to\u00a0Pozirk<\/em>\u2018s analysis of the National Statistics Committee\u2019s (Bie\u0142stat) data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
