A DECREASE IN THE NUMBER OF JOB ADVERTISEMENTS

A decrease in the number of advertisements for the month of February compared to a year earlier is reported by the career site "Job Tiger" in its monthly analysis of the dynamics of the labor market in the country.

At the end of February, job offers on the leading job sites were around 46,300, which was 300 more than in January, but on a year-on-year basis, there was a decline in their number - about 2,500 fewer than in February 2022, it said in the message.

There was a drop in offers in February in most sectors. The exception is "Hospitality and restaurant industry", where the active recruitment period is gradually starting. Its listings grew by 1,200, or 19 percent growth over the previous month.

Minimal growth is also recorded in the "Manufacturing" (140 offers more) and "Construction" (60 offers more) sectors, both of which saw an increase of two percent.

In other sectors, however, the number of advertisements has decreased. The biggest drop was in the "Trade and Sales" sector (450 offers less, 4 percent drop). In the January analysis, there was a large increase in listings (+4,600) in this sector.

It is followed by the sectors "IT" (320 offers less, 6 percent drop), "Marketing and advertising" (230 offers less, 14 percent drop), "Health care and pharmacy" (220 offers less, 10 percent drop), "Administrative and service activities" (190 offers less, 4 percent drop), "Logistics and transport" (40 offers less, 1 percent drop) and "Accounting, audit, finance" (30 offers by -small, 1 percent decline).

The "IT" sector recorded the biggest drop in job postings on an annual basis. It has 2,600 fewer offers than in February 2022, a drop of 34 percent.

An annual decline was also reported in the sectors "Marketing and advertising" (-14 percent), "Administrative and service activities" (-6 percent), "Hospitality and catering" (-4 percent) and "Accounting, audit, finance" (- 2 percent).

With growth on an annual basis are the sectors "Logistics and transport" (ten percent), "Trade and sales" (eight percent), "Construction" (seven percent), "Health care and pharmacy" (five percent) and "Manufacturing" (three percent).

Fewer offers were also made for working from home and/or remote work in February - five percent. Their number is 4,600 and they are nearly 260 less than in January. The main reason for their decline is the smaller number of offers in the "IT", "Administrative and service activities" and "Trade and sales" sectors. The distribution of these proposals is: 62 percent in the "IT" sector, followed by "Administrative and service activities" (14 percent), the outsourcing industry sectors (12 percent) and "Trade and sales" (6 percent).

According to the breakdown in the analysis of the career site, the total number of advertisements in the leading regional cities has decreased by two percent. The largest number of advertisements are in the capital, Dyalovo - 44 percent, followed by Plovdiv (ten percent), Varna (nine percent), Burgas (4 percent) and Ruse and Stara Zagora with three percent each.

There was a 4 percent increase in job postings for refugees – 2,300, which is six percent of all postings.

SUCCESS TECHNIQUES: NO MORE BURNOUT

When it comes to leading, working and living, we all experience stress, but there are ways to deal with it and avoid excessive levels that lead to burnout. You can try making four changes in your thinking that can help you avoid stress and make you more efficient:

Prioritize self-care

Make time for activities that nourish your mind, body, and spirit, such as exercise, meditation, or spending time with loved ones. This can help you recharge your energy and support your mental and emotional well-being, which in turn will make dealing with stress more effective.

Do not put yourself under extra stress

Free yourself from perfectionism and the pursuit of constant excellence. Learn to recognize when you are being too hard on yourself. As a result, you can reduce the strain you put on yourself. This can help you deal with stress more effectively and avoid burnout.

Change your thinking

To be flexible as a leader, you must constantly change your perspective. The same goes for stress. When you view a situation as a problem to be solved, you may feel more motivated to find a solution; you may believe that things are under your control. This shift in perspective can help you manage stress and avoid burnout. Also, seeing a situation as a problem instead of a threat can reduce stress levels.

Find out what your limits are

It's important for leaders to know exactly where their capabilities stretch, because trying to do it all yourself can be overwhelming and lead to burnout. Instead, it's better to be honest with yourself and others about what you can and can't do, and ask for help when you need it. This can help you manage your work responsibilities and workload more effectively, and can also foster a sense of collaboration and support within your team. If you don't have the opportunity or time to do something, be honest with yourself and ask for help.

These four mindset shifts can help you better manage stress and avoid burnout by bringing your purpose back into focus and giving you more clarity on what you really want to achieve.

THE PRIME MINISTER OF ROMANIA HAS APPOINTED AN AI-ASSISTANT AS AN ADVISER

Romanian Prime Minister Nicolae Chuca introduced a robot named ION, gifted with artificial intelligence, and appointed him as his adviser. The Prime Minister emphasized that ION is a Romanian project developed by Romanian researchers. Its name is a mirror image of the word NOI, which means "we" in Romanian, News.ro reports.

"He will be given the role of Honorary Advisor to the Prime Minister, and I appreciate that he will help us better serve the Romanian citizens by informing the government in real time about the proposals, problems and wishes of the Romanians," Chuca said.

The Liberal minister said the newest member of his entourage - a mirror-like structure with a sound interface - was a "first of its kind international event", describing ION as "the first government adviser to use artificial intelligence".

“Hello, you gave me life and now my role is to reflect you like a mirror. What should I know about Romania?” said the voice of ION at the launch.

ION "will use technology and artificial intelligence to capture public opinion," using "data publicly available on social networks," according to a government document detailing the project.

People in Romania will also be able to chat with ION on the project website.

"I am convinced that the use of artificial intelligence should not be an option, but an obligation to make more informed decisions," points out Chuka.

Romania, one of the poorest countries in the EU, is often described as the 'Silicon Valley' of Eastern Europe with a thriving start-up scene.

HOW CAN WE PAY OFF A QUICK LOAN EARLY

Fast loans are becoming an increasingly significant source of funds for Bulgarians. From the online platform "We, the users " give valuable advice for people taking out such loans.

"If the user had an urgent need for money, but already has free funds, he should know that at any time he can repay the loan ahead of schedule - in full or in part. In this case, the creditor has no right to demand the interest and expenses for the remaining part of the term of the contract", explains Gabriela Rumenova from "We, the users".

"The borrower does not owe compensation or a penalty in the following cases - when the loan is repaid in a period during which the interest rate under the loan agreement is not fixed, the repayment is made on the basis of a payment under an insurance contract aimed at guaranteeing the return of the loan, or the contract is in the form of an overdraft," Rumenova points out.

In all other cases of early repayment, the creditor is entitled to compensation. However, it cannot exceed 1% of the early repaid loan amount - with a remaining contract period of more than one year, and 0.5% - with a remaining contract period of less than one year.

Another right of the consumer is to withdraw from the credit agreement within 14 days of its conclusion or from the day on which he received the conditions under it. In this case, he does not owe penalties and compensation to the creditor, with the exception of the costs incurred by him to public administrative bodies, which are not subject to reimbursement.

Important!

"When exercising the right to withdraw from the contract, the consumer must send a notification to the creditor before the expiry of the deadline in which he has the right to withdraw (14 days). Then, within a period of up to 30 days, he must return to the creditor the amount withdrawn plus the interest for the days from the granting of the loan to the return of the principal, applying the interest rate specified in the contract. And another important thing - the right of refusal applies to loans over BGN 400, "We, the users" explain.

HOW TO REFRAIN FROM WITHDRAWING QUICK LOANS

How do some businesses profit from quick loans? Is there a disease called "quick loans" and how to cure it? Are the people to blame, are the excessively high interest rates to blame, are the laws to blame... Where is the root of the problem?

It is not the fault of the one who eats the pie, but the one who gives it to him. The credit market is a "very big pie" in our country, because literally billions are given out as loans. This segment of fast loans is growing at a very high speed, because more and more people prefer to take out a revolving credit quickly, where you do not have to prove your financial capabilities, respectively - to return it in the fastest way.

However, it often happens that people withdraw - withdraw, withdraw - withdraw, until some life event occurs, which suddenly interrupts this cycle, and this causes irreparable damage to the debtor as a result, because he becomes an eternal debtor. The moment you stop repaying, other lenders start offering you credit too, you start refinancing, you fall into a cycle where you take out a loan to repay your previous one... The price is too high.

Loan companies are legitimate. However, the extent to which the product they offer is legal is another question.

Unfortunately, the law is not well developed enough – changes were made to the Consumer Credit Act, which to some extent limited unlimited usury. Before that, there were quick loans that reached 200-300% in one year.

The law is imperfect and incomplete and allows for a number of circumventions. Therefore, it is the court that is currently writing the law, and probably thousands of decisions are issued every year, with which it is established that the debtor does not owe so much money to the creditor...

ROMANIA STOLE THE PIE FROM US, THERE IS NO GOING BACK

The so-called "Dobrudzhanska banitsa" will be registered as a protected geographical product of Romania, not of Bulgaria, Digi 24 TV reports.

The steps for European recognition of this product started in 2017, and in May 2019 the dossier was sent to the European Commission in the electronic system "eAmbrosia". The application was published in the Official Journal of the EU in February 2021, with Bulgaria subsequently submitting a reasoned objection. In July 2021, the European Commission invites both parties to consultations, Digi 24 TV recalls the background to the dispute.

Geographical indications protect products against misuse or imitation of the registered name and guarantee the true origin of the product to customers. These rules ensure that all producers in the geographical area in question have collective rights to the product, provided that certain requirements are met, the EU explains on its official website.

After nearly two years of "resolute resistance" by its neighbors south of the Danube, Romania has won the right to a protected geographical indication of the "Dobrudzhanska banitsa", reports the Romanian television Digi 24. Now Romania will receive European recognition through the registration of the product with all the resulting rights for an unlimited period of time.

"Bulgaria's opposition is based on the common history of the Dobrudzha region, which also includes territory in Bulgaria, and our neighbors have been resolutely and persistently opposing it for almost two years," Ionuts Diakonyasa, adviser to the Ministry of Agriculture, told Agerpress. He specified that Bulgaria will be granted the right to use the name, but only locally, in the region south of Constanta County and without recognition as a protected geographical indication for a period of 10 years, although it initially requested 15 years. Bulgaria's neighbors will also not be able to export the product with a name translated into Romanian as "Dobrudzhanska banitsa", said the adviser at the Ministry of Agriculture.

To date, Romania has 10 products recognized under European quality schemes, of which nine are protected geographical products. These are plum majun from Topoloveni, salami from Sibiu, smoked Novak from Bursey, smoked Danube mackerel, sudjuci from Pleškoi, "Telemya" cheese from Sibiu, yellow cheese from Saveni, pike caviar salad from Tulča, traditional carp caviar salad. The cheese "Telemya from Ibanest" has a protected designation of origin.

At the same time, Romanian spirits are also registered at the European level, respectively in the category of fruit spirits and wine spirits.

At the level of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, specific actions aimed at registering the product "Wormwood", manufactured in the category of flavored drinks, in the European quality systems are being carried out. Seven other products submitted for registration are at an advanced stage, Digi 24 also informs.

CHANGING CAREERS - WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES?

Professional life is a long journey into the unknown. Even if we work in a wonderful place, with great colleagues and feel valued, sooner or later a new challenge comes, a new opportunity to move forward. Developing skills while avoiding stagnation and burnout is the main motivation for making career changes. No one would turn down a better, more meaningful and more rewarding job. The more knowledge and abilities we put in, the better and higher paying position we will occupy.

After all, one changes jobs to be happier, right? Even if we are talking about a small step, such as moving to another position in the same company, or a big leap - changing the position, field and place of residence, the pros always outweigh the cons. The article presents the most important of them, as well as how to turn them into an advantage.

You start clean

Changing careers is a normal practice in the modern world, and no one is saying that one is doomed to work the same job until retirement. Quite the opposite - the labor market is open, dynamic and operates across borders and continents. With the right resume and CV template highlighting your strengths, you can expect many doors to open and soon you can land the job you want. Or which will surprise you.

With it will come the freshness, enthusiasm and energy of change. Starting your own business? Taking up a new position with the possibility of overseas travel? Starting work with a large client? As long as it's new, it's always interesting - and it will definitely make you forget stress, fatigue and boredom. You'll meet different people outside of your comfort zone, explore places and cultures, and be inspired to reinvent yourself. You will probably quickly become convinced that you can do things that you did not expect. And it's very likely that you'll like them.

You find your way

Despite the hundreds of self-help books and advice on how to find the job of your dreams, it is clear that there is no one-size-fits-all recipe. Career development is an individual process that depends not only on your knowledge and experience, but also on your human qualities. Therefore, do not look for ready-made solutions - they may have worked for someone, but for you it may be the exact opposite. Shake off expectations of what should or shouldn't happen in the first week, month or year.

And don't be misled by the notion that age is a vice. There is no such thing as too young for a high position or too old for another job. According to various statistics, on average we change 5 - 7 jobs - and only you know best when, where and how to continue your professional path.

You learn and you get better

Most recruiters say that moving to a new company helps you upgrade your skills. The first few years are especially valuable, when you usually learn the most. Maybe in the new office they work with different software or with devices that you are not familiar with? Or do they use other production methods and processes? Or is the enterprise managed differently?

Whereas in the past skills and occupations were acquired for life, now education and training are a permanent part of a more dynamic work style. In the age of artificial intelligence and remote work, entire professions are disappearing quickly, so it's important to keep up with technology. It is now realistic to imagine how software can replace translators, drones - couriers, robots - factory workers and even surgeons. Technology is not the enemy, as long as you know how to get the most out of it.

You grow as you search

Even the job search itself will teach you valuable lessons. It's an excellent way to get in touch with the labor market and the needs of employers. You might know it's time to pay attention to your online presence if you're a freelance musician, journalist or designer.

Or you may realize that you lack a project management certification that many people in your industry already have. What if at the job interview you are asked about your soft skills or foreign languages? In general, searching keeps you flexible and ready to grab the opportunity when it opens up.

Live better

Need to work to pay the bills and support your family? No, this kind of thinking stifles initiative and makes us feel trapped. Today, it is widely accepted that a fulfilling career is one of the keys to a happy life. We spend 8 hours a day at work - and if we are not happy there, then what will we take home when we go home to our loved ones? Stress, fatigue, conflicts, tension?

If you're unhappy in your work environment and it's affecting you personally, it might be time for a change. Because work is not just a matter of money, but of quality and fulfilling life. Whether you're feeling unsatisfied in your current job or just want to try something new, changing careers has far more benefits than risks. Start investing time and energy into it now.

VOUCHERS ARE GIVEN TO THE UNEMPLOYED

The unemployed will learn a new kind of training vouchers. This is provided for by the Draft Decree of the Council of Ministers to determine the terms and conditions for providing training vouchers. In addition to those provided so far, vouchers will now be given for training for the first, second and third degree of professional qualification or for qualification in a part of a profession, for training in key competencies, including digital competences.

A new moment is the financing of trainings for the acquisition of four levels of digital competence. The value of the vouchers depends on the type and duration of the training. In the project, specific values have been determined for the relevant trainings. In cases of co-financing of the value of the HRDP voucher by employed persons, the requirement will be defined in the selection criteria for operations.

Persons awarded a training voucher will have the right to independently choose the type of training, its duration and the training provider.

A new point in the voucher mechanism is that for the purposes of external and independent certification of the acquired knowledge and skills in digital competences by the trained persons, a Unified Certification Center is being created, whose functions will be performed by the Center for Human Resources Development and Regional Initiatives under the Minister of labor and social policy.

The planned trainings (basic and intermediate digital skills) should start as a matter of urgency, no later than 01.04.2023. Therefore, the term of the public consultation was shortened within 14 days.

Vouchers for training will be provided by the Employment Agency to unemployed, inactive and employed persons - representatives of the relevant target groups under the Human Resources Development Program, the National Recovery and Resilience Plan and the Just Transition Fund. Individuals who meet the eligibility criteria will apply for a training voucher through the Employment Agency's electronic platform.

The voucher is a digital document that will be created officially in the electronic platform of the Employment Agency and will have a unique identification digital code that will allow its individualization and tracking.

The Employment Agency will continue to maintain on its website a public register of vouchers provided.

The value of the vouchers depends on the type and duration of the training. The project has set specific values for the relevant trainings as follows:

For training to acquire a professional qualification:

- for the first degree, with a duration of not less than 300 study hours - BGN 660;

CONDITIONS FOR PROTECTION WHEN REPORTING FINANCIAL ABUSE

According to the newly adopted Law on the Protection of Persons Reporting or Publicly Disclosing Information on Violations, employers in the public sector with the exception of municipalities, employers in the private sector with 50 or more workers or employees, etc. are obliged to build whistle-blowing systems for disclosing information on violations of Bulgarian legislation or acts of the European Union that endanger or damage the public interest and the law of the European Union.

In what order and who has the right to file these reports?

Protection under this law is provided to a whistleblower from the moment the report is filed or information about a violation is made public.

A reporting person within the meaning of this law is a natural person who files a report or publicly discloses information about a violation that has become known to him in his capacity as:

- worker, employee, civil servant or other person who performs wage labor, regardless of the nature of the work, the method of payment and the source of financing;

- a person who works without an employment relationship and/or exercises a free profession and/or craft activity;

- volunteer or intern;

- partner, shareholder, sole owner of the capital, member of the management or control body of a commercial company, member of the audit committee of an enterprise;

- a person who works for a natural or legal person, its subcontractors or suppliers;

- a job candidate who participated in a competition or other form of selection for employment and in this capacity received information about a violation;

- a worker or an employee, when the information was obtained within the framework of an employment or service relationship, which was terminated at the time of the submission of the report or of the public announcement;

- any other whistleblower who reports a violation that became known to him in a work context;

- persons who assist the whistleblower in the whistleblowing process, persons who are related to the whistleblower and who may be subject to retaliatory actions due to the whistleblower, and legal entities in which the whistleblower owns an interest, for which he works or with whom it is otherwise associated in a work context.

It is important to clarify that individuals who anonymously reported unlawfully or publicly but anonymously disclosed information about violations and were subsequently identified and subjected to repressive retaliation also have the right to protection in the cases defined by law.

A whistleblower is entitled to a remedy provided he had reasonable cause to believe that the whistleblower's information was correct at the time of the whistleblower's report. In the presence of these conditions, the person who reports a violation to institutions, bodies, services or agencies of the European Union also has the right to protection.

Employers should designate one or more employees who are responsible for handling reports. Employees responsible for handling reports may be the officials in the structure charged with the processing and protection of personal data. These employees may also perform other activities assigned by the employer, in case their reconciliation does not lead to a conflict of interest.

The report is submitted to the employee in charge of handling reports, in writing, including by e-mail, or orally. Verbal reporting can be done by telephone, other voice communication systems, and at the request of the reporting person - through a personal meeting in a suitable time agreed between the parties.

WILL YOU BE PAID A SALARY IF YOU DON'T HAVE A CONTRACT?

Workers and employees should not agree to sign contracts with fictitious terms in them, as this prevents the control authorities from gathering indisputable evidence of the violations. This is advised by the Executive Agency "General Labor Inspectorate" (ЕA GLI).

In response to an inquiry by BTA, the department states that it is important for citizens to file reports in a timely manner, while they are still working, in order to be established at the workplace. Assisting the supervisory authorities, who are obliged to protect the anonymity of the whistleblowers, is also one of the advice of the GLI. From there they emphasize that the verbally agreed working conditions also hinder the provision of adequate protection.

"Labor legislation guarantees the rights of workers, but no one can protect them better than themselves," commented the inspection.

The most common alerts

The Labor Inspectorate often receives reports from workers who complain that they have not been paid what was agreed after they worked without an employment contract and were dismissed. The GLI states that in such cases no control can be carried out, because they cannot actually establish that the applicant is working. They cannot force the employer to pay the due amounts, as there is no written evidence that he really owes them, the inspection explains.

"It is also a common practice to report unpaid remuneration after the termination of the employment relationship, but during the inspections it turns out that the amount agreed in writing has been paid, and the individuals claim to have agreed verbally," the GLI also commented.

The reports received by the Labor Inspectorate mostly concern labor relations. They are related to the payment of labor, the creation and termination of employment relationships.

Last year, the control bodies of the Labor Inspection established 93,954 violations related to the implementation of labor relations. The most common ones refer to the payment of labor, the establishment of employment relationships and the provisions on the distribution of working time.

For January 2023, 3,392 inspections were carried out, during which 18,749 violations were found. The number of persons working without an employment contract in January 2023 was 270. The most violations are found in the sectors and economic activities in which the most inspections are carried out. These are construction, hotel and catering, trade, crop production and animal husbandry.

These sectors have been identified on the basis of analyzes of the results of the control activity and other analyzes as high-risk in terms of the application of labor legislation. Accordingly, measures for enhanced control are planned in them and the largest number of checks are carried out in relation to all economic activities, commented the GLI. And they specify that more violations are also found in economic activities such as "Clothing production" and "Food production".

The prevention of health and safety at work

The prevention of "black work" and ensuring healthy and safe working conditions, especially in high-risk activities and sectors, are among the key highlights of the Labor Inspectorate's control. For the prevention and limitation of the "gray" economy, a special measure is planned annually, the inspections of which are focused on the implementation of labor relations. Commercial establishments are being intensively inspected, and campaigns are being planned in seasonal establishments, mainly in the hotel and restaurant industry, as the risk of working without employment contracts in them is also very high, noted the GLI.

From the end of 2022, an increase in the number of employees of the General Labor Inspectorate has also begun. The inspectorate believes that the appointment of more officers with inspection powers will contribute to covering more jobs in more economic activities.

According to another planned measure, periodic control is carried out in sites with high-risk activities in terms of ensuring health and safety when working in them. These are objects in the mining industry, metalworking, production and storage of ammunition, etc., which must be inspected at least once a year.

Citizens can assess the working environment themselves

From the end of 2022, workers can check whether there is a risk of working undeclared through a special self-assessment tool. It was developed under the project "Cooperation for Decent Working Conditions", financed by the Fund for Bilateral Relations under the Financial Mechanism of the European Economic Area and the Norwegian Financial Mechanism 2014 - 2021.

"The value of this tool is that if a risk is identified, the workers also receive guidance on how to act to eliminate it," commented GLI. The tool is available here.

Questionnaires for self-control were also developed under another project "Optimization and Innovations in EA GLI " of the Operational Program "Development of Human Resources", co-financed by the European Social Fund. They are related to general requirements of legislation, as well as specific to specific sectors and economic activities. These questionnaires are sent by labor inspectors to employers. At the discretion of the labor inspectors and depending on the information filled in and the risk of violations, an on-the-spot inspection is carried out at an enterprise, before which, however, the employers again have time to correct the discrepancies. Filling out the questionnaires itself does not carry any risk of sanctions for them, but it helps them to determine for themselves which legal provision they are violating and to remedy the violation, according to GLI.

At the Labor Inspectorate, we do not believe that all employers commit intentional violations. In most cases, it is a matter of ignorance. That is why we do our best to support honest employers in their efforts to comply with the law through the implementation of similar projects, commented the department.

In order to increase the awareness of employers and workers about their rights and obligations regarding labor legislation, in addition to the developed self-assessment tool, the inspectorate launched the information campaign "Decent work - it's up to you".

If workers believe that their labor rights have been violated, they can report to the Labor Inspectorate or to the Inspectorate's Hotline 0700 17 670.
