ROMANIAN LABOR RESOURCES UNDER THE NEW EUROPE 2020 STRATEGY

Summary/Abstract: The paper deals with the analysis of the Europe 2020 Strategy’s goals related to labor resources, taking into account four indicators: employment rate, early leavers from education and training, tertiary educational attainment and people at risk of poverty or social exclusion. The analysis is built on three steps: a comparative analysis between EU28 average and Romania during 2000-2014, a regression analysis under ANOVA restrictions and a forecast analysis until 2020 under ARIMA method, using SPSS19 software. Whole analysis and all conclusions are supported by pertinent statistical tables and diagrams. These diagrams are based on the latest official statistic data. The main conclusion of the paper is that Europe 2020 Strategy’s goals are far away of being achieved in 2020. Moreover, the socioeconomic disparities will remain in 2020 raising doubts about the Cohesion Policy.
