Skill Shortages in the International market

With many candidates aspiring to live and work abroad, a number of countries have begun analysing their potential skills shortages.

The tax free lifestyle of the Middle East continues to attract many expatriates, with Saudi Arabia having issued approximately one million expat work visas last year

Looking ahead, there appear to be skill shortages emerging in a number of locations. Due to low birth rates and an ageing population in Canada, it is likely that the country will seek skilled expatriates to contribute to the labour force and economy. The Canadian Immigration and Multiculturalism Minister predicted Canada to have between 240,000 and 265,000 new permanent residents in 2011.

South Africa has also been suffering from a skills shortage, with the problem expected to worsen as we move into 2012. A survey which looked at the banking, financial services and insurance industries, particularly at graduates and postgraduates, found that 82% of auditing firms claimed there is a shortage of chartered accountants in the nation. The fact that many South African nationals are choosing to move abroad to work rather than stay in their home country has also greatly contributed to the lack of skilled professionals
