"This article provides an overview of recent labour market trends, challenges and employability in the Republic of Moldova. Substantial structural changes have been seen in the labour market, resulting from a pronounced demographic crisis over the last twenty years caused by a decrease in fertility and by high infant mortality. These demographic transition effects have been aggravated by the difficult times of the transition to a market economy and by migration of the population, while an increase in the coefficient of aging has had an effect on changes in the structure of the labour market. The article examines distinctive features of the labour market, such as employment and unemployment, and current trends in active and passive policies, etc. Many developing countries face rapid aging transitions, while Moldova has to strengthen the economic contribution of older workers. The article also reviews the evidence of official sources on employment and the job market, such as demographic trends, and the gender dimensions of agricultural and rural employment. "
