Este estudio permite cuantificar los cambios que se han presentado como resultado de la pandemia con relación al perfil requerido de trabajadores en la República Dominicana. La metodología aplicada fue el análisis de la demanda de personal solicitada por las cinco bolsas o agencias de empleo con mayor número de avisos web de requerimientos de empleados en el país. La mayor parte de puestos vacantes actuales se concentra en técnicos profesionales de nivel medio, reduciéndose la proporción de solicitudes de personal para labores de administración, ventas y servicios. Este comportamiento sugiere que se disminuyeron las vacantes disponibles en los empleos asociados a la cadena de valor del sector turístico y de comercio, los más golpeados por la pandemia. Adicionalmente, la mayor proporción de las empresas continúa solicitando personal en edades de 25 a 45 años y hombres. Por otra parte, en el último año, han exigido mayores habilidades blandas, tales como trabajo en equipo, destrezas en comunicación, enfoque a resultados, responsabilidad y liderazgo, así como el dominio de competencias duras como TICs y del idioma inglés. Lo anterior abre un amplio abanico de oportunidades de desarrollo de programas y ajustes de los modelos educativos, como también la adopción de políticas para incentivar el empleo en los grupos poblacionales más vulnerables.
This study quantified the changes that have occurred in relation to the required job profiles in the Dominican Republic after pandemic. The methodology used was the analysis of the personnel demand requested by the five employment platforms or agencies with the highest number of web notices of employee requirements in the country. Most of the current vacancies are concentrated in professional mid-level technicians, decreasing the proportion of requests for personnel for administration, sales and service tasks declining compared before pandemic. This behavior suggests that the vacancies available in the jobs associated with the tourism value chain and commerce sector decreased, the ones hardest hit by the pandemic. Additionally, most of the companies continue to request staff of men between the ages of 25 and 45. In 2021, more companies have demanded soft skills, such as teamwork, communication skills, focus on results, responsibility and leadership. On the other hand, requests for hard skills have increased, such as ICT and the English language. The above opens a wide range of opportunities for program development and adjustments of educational models (curriculum), as well as the adoption of policies to encourage employment in the most vulnerable population groups in the country.
