Summary/Abstract: This scientific work addresses the behavioural aspects of employment in the Republic of Moldova. The structural character of employment has a significant impact on the labour market competitiveness. The major changes that have occurred in society, as a result of labour intellectualization, have also generated substantial changes in the structure of employment, both in the Republic of Moldova and worldwide. Consequently, many people with a low level professional training have become vulnerable in the labour market, and a large number has even lost their jobs.At the same time, in the Republic of Moldova, the employment structure by activity fields or by education level proves that it is not appropriate to the current development situation of the society. This has made the labour market from the Republic of Moldova vulnerable, compared to the European labour market. As a result, the international labour migration in the Republic of Moldova has significantly increased which has made the local labour market more vulnerable and less attractive to foreign investors.Starting from the above mentioned facts, we are aiming at making an analysis of the structural employment of the labour force in the Republic of Moldova, in order toout line the possible problems and risks which the labour market is to face, if the current situation persists in the future. In this scientific work in order to obtain conclusive results, statistical and comparative analysis as research methods will be applied.
