Arsen Ghazarian: There is skilled labor shortage in Armenia
Wednesday,
May 15
The IT sector and innovations are of importance to Armenian economy,
Chairman of the Union of Manufacturers and Businessmen Arsen Ghazarian
said at the meeting with reporters today.
`Armenia's future is related to the IT sector,' he stressed. In his
words, the development of the IT sector is a necessity, without which
business may suffer.
According to Arsen Ghazarian, although high technology has become an
integral part of life, there is also a reverse side of the process:
the introduction of new technology results in job cuts.
He underlined the necessity of optimizing the labor market in the
direction of other spheres. According to him, the situation is notable
for mass unemployment on the one hand and a skilled labor shortage on
the other.
`It may seem that there is a surplus of labor, but at the same time,
for example, technical experts and pilots for international flights
are in great demand,' the union chairman said.
The 5th DigiTec 2013 Business Forum under the slogan `Smart Solutions
for Smart Counties' will be held on June 21-22 in Yerevan. The event
aims to promote the use of IT both in private companies and government
organizations.
