Briefing note - Cedefop labour and skills shortage index

Cedefop’s Labour and Skills Shortage Index (LSSI) aims to provide a standardised measure of occupational shortages that can inform decision-making regarding workforce and learning needs in the European Union. The current version of Cedefop’s LSSI investigates occupational shortages by 2035 across two-digit occupational groups for each Member State, in line with the estimates provided by the 2025 Cedefop skills forecast.
