Nearly 10,000 positions left to be filled in the Mongolian mining sector
Mongolia has declared the year 2011 as the year of “supporting Mongolian employment”.
As part of this initiative, the Mongolian Labour and Employment Ministry has just published employment figures so far including the number of vacant positions
The mining sector is by far the Mongolian industry with the largest difficulties in finding qualified labour with 8,509 positions currently registered as vacant and another 11,000 new jobs being created before the end of the year. Within the current vacancies, 1,846 of those are in the coal mining industries, 400 in the petroleum sector and another 6,500 within other mining related industries. To fill those gaps, the Mongolian University of Science and Technology is currently training over 5,000 students to fill up the spaces but this still leaves mining companies with a huge labour shortfall. As foreign mining companies established in Mongolia have strict, government imposed, Mongolian to foreign ratios, this is a situation that is unlikely to be resolved in the near future.
