“…When interpreting the results of employer surveys, it is important to connect the responses of firms to company characteristics and complement these responses with an understanding of the operating environment, that is, including the cyclical position as well as labour market characteristics that affect firms' difficulties to hire (see Savšek, 2018). At the firm level, reported shortages and problems to fill vacancies could be due to the wage and working conditions being offered, workforce characteristics or the effectiveness of the recruitment process, rather than to the lack of suitable candidates among job seekers.…”

We review the recent economic literature on skill shortages and skill mismatch by paying particular attention to the demand side of skill mismatch, which have not received much attention in the relevant literature. We discuss measurement issues and how skill shortages and mismatch vary both with the business cycle and with structural factors. We review the economic costs for workers and firms and conclude by considering the policy implications, including how responsibilities for skill development can best be shared and what role policies can play to better address skill shortages and mismatches.

“…Съществуват емпирични изследвания, които анализират ефекта на кризата върху производителността на труда и работните заплати в ЕС-28 (вж. Drahokoupil, Piasna, 2017;Savsek, 2018). Именно затова в представения тук модел присъства и подобна допълнителна променлива, чиято цел е да изследва влиянието на производителността на труда върху работната заплата преди кризата и след нея.…”

The relationship between labor productivity and wages in the EU as a whole, as well as in comparative terms between old and new Member States is analyzed. Although the theoretical basis for such a study well known, some recent empirical studies put forth the need to rethink this relationship in the period after the crisis. In this regard, a result that is new to the Bulgarian literature has been drawn up with the help of modern panel econometric methods, which shows that there is an asymmetry in the relationship between labor productivity and wages before and after the global financial and economic crisis of 2007-2009. In addition, a further explanation of the asymmetry between labor productivity and wages, as found in the literature, is provided.
