“…Life expectancy and healthy aging imply good physical and mental health, and these are associated with high well-being [ 31 ]. Welfare is associated with income, as increasing income implies increasing well-being [ 32 , 33 , 34 ]. Welfare is indirectly determined by education [ 35 , 36 ], because education improves social relationships and generates higher income, which increase well-being [ 37 ] but not significantly [ 38 ].…”

Population development is reflected by sustainable development indicators, among them are the indicators describing longevity and healthy aging. Longevity is reflected by life expectancy, and healthy aging is reflected by healthy life expectancy; high values of these indicators reflect good conditions of living for people. Life expectancy and healthy life expectancy analyses are of big interest among academics, policymakers, medical researchers, and others in order to direct the flow of funds in the most effective way possible to the population groups in most need. High life expectancy and low birth rate will lead to aging of the population, having profound implications on the school age population, politics, healthcare, labor force, social protection, social security issues, and public finances. Healthy life expectancy reflects health conditions, including the impacts of mortality and morbidity. As cardiovascular disease causes more than half of all deaths across Europe, this paper examines the influence of cardiovascular disease on longevity and healthy aging across Europe. The methodology was chosen so as to test the research hypotheses: (a) principal component analysis provided the socio-economic factors that are correlated to longevity and healthy aging; (b) regression analysis identified the relationship between healthy aging and cardiovascular disease; and (c) hierarchical cluster analysis allowed us to find common features of the groups of countries according to healthy aging and longevity.

“…Bălan et al (2013) shows that there is a mismatch between job requirements and academic curriculum of university graduates, which held rather unstable jobs, and that high unemployment is an issue, conclusions based on data up to 2011. Dimian (2014) shows that, even during periods with relatively high unemployment, many employers cannot find employees with the right qualifications, and existing employees lack important skills and abilities. Greater investment in workforce education, and strengthening the links between business and the educational sector are needed to address these issues (Dimian ,2014).…”

Greater investment in workforce education, and strengthening the links between business and the educational sector are needed to address these issues (Dimian ,2014). Vasilescu and Begu (2019), in analyzing reservation wages for Romanian youths, showed that university graduates expect to earn, on average, €323, which can increase when they intend to work in their field of study, emigrate, or around expected graduation date.…”

The paper attempts to present a comprehensive picture of the main characteristics of Romanian university-educated youths in their journey to employment. The persisting demographic decline and significant labor shortages point out to the importance of having an effective transition from school to work (as reflected in several Europe 2020 policy targets) so that youth and young adult cohorts are able to contribute to the Romanian economy to the full extent of their abilities. Analysis of the latest data available reveals that Romanian university graduates’ path to employment often involves a complete switch from study to work. Despite a lack of previous work experience, they enjoy high employment rates, relatively long job tenure that starts on, or shortly after, graduation, and have jobs that match their education. They also tend to be proactive in their job search and over 90% are not willing to change residence in order to start employment. Inactivity patterns that consider both work and education, and early leavers from education show significant fluctuations during the economic cycle. Results indicate the strong and weak areas with respect to labor market integration of youths and young adults, and can provide a starting point for policies to optimize their successful integration. It also points out to potential research areas to address key aspects of transitions from school to work that may clarify unsolved issues and guide effective policy interventions.

“…All these factors created employees deficits in different activity areas, becoming chronic over time. Even in times of economic crisis, employers had problems finding work force with the right qualifications for the vacancies (Dimian, 2014). This is also the case of the health system in Romania, where the employees deficit is alarming.…”

An important part of migration represents the brain drain, especially the migration of physicians. Romania has a health system in continuous reform, facing for over 3 decades a shortage of employees. Moreover, employed specialists and young physicians migrated, the health care system registering a medium efficiency. The number of migrant physicians from Romania followed an ascending trend, and this had negative consequences on Romanian population health. The main objective of this paper is identifying the profile and the dynamics of the migrant physician from Romania. Other objective is highlighting the Romanian counties where most physicians migrated from and the preferred destination countries.
