Summary/Abstract: The structural convergence of the economies of the new EU Member States is positively influenced by the growth of the average from the services sector and negatively by a relatively high contribution of the industry, trade and transport; the agricultural sector, by reducing the contribution of the GDP in all these countries, sustains the process of structural adjustment. The structural changes from the economy are accompanied by a reduction of the employment rate from agriculture and its growth in the services sector, this trend is also maintaining after the accession to the EU, estimating that in the next ten years the number of those who will focus on a third sector will be of 10% from the employed population. The employment rate from industry registers a non-linear evolution, it grows in the first stages and then it decreases.
