Hungary’s ageing population is accelerating labour shortages across multiple sectors, particularly healthcare, caregiving, education, and skilled trades. As older workers retire, fewer younger workers are available to replace them, creating long-term gaps in the labour market. This demographic trend increases demand for nurses, caregivers, construction workers, and technicians. The ageing population also expands the need for social and healthcare services, pushing employers to recruit foreign workers. As the workforce shrinks, opportunities for international professionals are expected to continue rising.
