Fewer and fewer trainees in the Ebersberg district.
Compared to the previous year, the IHK reports a minus of twelve percent at the beginning of the new training year.
District
- At the beginning of September, almost 240 young people in the Ebersberg district began training in IHK professions.
According to the preliminary statistics at the beginning of the training year, the number of training contracts concluded was down twelve percent compared to the previous year, as reported by the IHK for Munich and Upper Bavaria.
“The Corona damper from the previous year can also be felt in this training year.
In view of the increasing shortage of skilled workers, our companies are focusing more than ever on training their youngsters themselves.
The willingness to train is huge and unbroken ”, says Sonja Ziegltrum-Teubner, chairwoman of the IHK regional committee Ebersberg.
"The biggest problem for many companies is still the lack of applicants."
Employment agency: In the district of Ebersberg, 277 apprenticeship positions are vacant
According to the latest statistics from the employment agency, 277 apprenticeship positions are still vacant in the district.
This offer is faced with 85 unsupported apprenticeship applicants.
In purely arithmetical terms, there are more than three apprenticeship positions for every unsupported applicant in the Ebersberg district.
“In the next few years, the gap between applicants on the training market will widen even further.
2.8 million workers in Bavaria will retire by 2030.
In the same period, however, there will only be 1.5 million school leavers as potential young skilled workers for these vacancies, ”says IHK regional committee chairman Ziegltrum-Teubner.
As in the previous year, the corona pandemic also made it difficult for almost all career orientation measures.
Trial internships, training fairs and personal application interviews could often not take place at all or only to a very limited extent.
The important application phase in spring also suffered from the extraordinary circumstances.
Even now there is still a chance of the right apprenticeship position
The bottom line is that the number of applicants for training in the district has fallen slightly by 0.5 percent compared to the previous year, according to data from the employment agency. This information relates to all areas of the apprenticeship market which, in addition to the IHK area of companies in industry, trade and services, also includes the craft, liberal professions and the public service. “We are still relying on a catch-up effect until the end of the year. School leavers who have not been taken care of and who are undecided still have every chance of finding a suitable training position, ”says Ziegltrum-Teubner optimistically. "This year, too, our declared goal remains that every school leaver willing to train gets an apprenticeship position." The chairman made it clear:“After numerous apprenticeships in the region had remained vacant last year, some companies have given up the active search for trainees. For the industries that are still affected by Corona restrictions, such as gastronomy, tourism and the event industry, the perspective is very difficult anyway. Even those who offer apprenticeships have major problems finding applicants there, ”says Ziegltrum-Teubner.
For young men, the wholesale and foreign trade management clerk (specializing in wholesale) is the most popular IHK occupation, and for women, the clerk for office management.
