Arbeitsmarkt: Mehr Jobs für Menschen mit mittlerem und niedrigem Abschluss
Die Beschäftigungsquote von Menschen mit Ausbildung stieg binnen zehn Jahren von 80 auf 83 Prozent. Bei Akademikern blieb sie mit 88 Prozent stabil, und Geringqualifizierte kamen auf 63 Prozent.
The German job market is offering more opportunities for people with intermediate and low-level qualifications, according to the Federal Statistical Office. The gap in employment rates between those with intermediate qualifications and high-level education has narrowed over the past decade. Employment rates for intermediate education holders rose from 80 to 83 percent, while for highly qualified individuals, the rate remained steady at 88 percent.
Additionally, employment rates for low-qualified workers increased from 59 to 63 percent. Despite this progress, low-qualified workers remain significantly less likely to be employed compared to highly qualified individuals. High qualifications encompass academics, master's and technicians, medium qualifications include those with vocational training, and low qualifications refer to individuals with education without completed apprenticeship.
Internationally, Germany's employment rates for intermediate qualifications exceed the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) average. With 83 percent of people with intermediate education employed in Germany, this figure is higher than the OECD average of 78 percent. Similarly, the employment rate for low-qualified individuals surpasses the OECD average of 60 percent.
The gap between employment rates for intermediate and highly qualified individuals was twice as large in the OECD average compared to Germany.
