Cedefop Updates Skills Forecast: New Data to Guide Europe's Skills and Labour Market Policy to 2035
EU employment is projected to grow 4%+ through 2035, but with sharp sectoral divergence: ICT (+2.5%/yr, Romania +7.8%) and healthcare surging on green transition and demographic aging, while coal (-10.7%/yr) and manufacturing fuels (-4.4%/yr) decline steeply. A rapidly aging workforce (65+ growing 7%+/yr) intensifies replacement-demand pressure on high-skilled roles.
