Hire yes in the coming months, but to a lesser extent. This is perhaps the summary of the situation of the Aragonese labor market in which 59% of companies plan to hire over the next six months, although forecasts of demand for workers falls by 30% compared to the previous survey in February and after increasing the number of Social Security affiliates by 10,315 people.

THE Most of the hires will be made in the province of Zaragozaestimating a total of 11,892 contracts. Behind it is the province of Huesca with 2,122 contracts and, finally, Teruel with 1,211 contracts.
The main professions are linked to jobs in manufacturing industry productionsalespeople in stores and warehouses, cashiers and tellers, as well as administrative jobs. They are sought-after professionals due to the industrial specialization of the Aragonese economy.
However, there are possibilities for other profiles and sectors such as practical nurses, waiters, truck drivers, computer engineers, cooks, masons and industrial production engineers. These 10 professions concentrate the 47% of demand.
These are jobs for whichIn 56% of cases, Professional Training is requested and professional certificates, while 21% require primary and secondary education and 19% require both a bachelor’s and master’s degree.

Vacancies
Over the previous six months, businesses experienced issues spanning a total of 9,300 jobsaccording to the data from this survey. A figure which, although it seems high, reflects a drop of 16% compared to the difficulties detected by companies during the survey of the previous semester.
Among the hardest positions to fill Those in manufacturing, hospitality, transportation, construction, healthcare and computer engineering stand out. These are sectors in which there is a lack of manpower in the field, a lack of experience and required training, but also a lack of attitude.
A situation in which it is urgent to prepare a Employability plan which improves the adaptation between labor supply and demand through active employment policies, prospecting of business needs and analysis of the profiles of the unemployed. This plan would have already been included as one of the key points of the Socio-economic Agreement of the Legislature signed on November 6 between the Government of Aragon and social agents.
