The Open Balkans initiative brought 3,300 employees to Serbia – Will we have to import labor from around the world?

The agreement on the establishment of a common labor market as part of the Open Balkans initiative had a positive effect on Serbia, because so far 3,300 people have taken advantage of this opportunity and found employment in Serbia, Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said.

At the EU-Western Balkans summit in Kotor, he told journalists that Serbia has a labor shortage, although it still formally has an unemployment rate of 8.9 – 9%.

– We will have to import labor force from around the world as much as possible in the coming period, if we want to preserve our economic perspective with the growth rate, and to speed up progress – Vucic said.
