Survey: Czechs fear labour shortage but don’t want foreign workers

Three-quarters of Czechs view the country's labour shortage as a serious problem and 60 percent expect the situation to get worse over the next 10 to 15 years, suggests a survey conducted by the STEM/MARK agency for recruitment company Orienta Czech.

However, only 19 percent of respondents support the active recruitment of non-nationals and one in three would prefer to resolve the situation without the hiring of foreigners.
