salaries. And in no other country, at least in the OECD, the purchasing power of workers has dropped in the middle decade of prosperity. Is it true that as in Spain do not live anywhere?

The engineer, doctor, lawyer, attorney, proportionally in Spain comes out cheaperor in neighboring countries, and economic incentives to get a college degree, the better pay respect to those who lack it-are down over the years.
A handful of data illustrates that having a university degree is not a big deal. According CooperationandDevelopment Organization for Economic Development (OECD), 22.7% of permanent workers and 40.27% of potential between 16 and 30 develops an that requires less preparation you have. CCOO give an absolute figure: 1.3 million graduates have a job that is not commensurate with their training. Adem & aacute; s, the difference in wages between college and who have not completed high school has fallen by 40% between 1997 and 2004, according to a study by La Caixa. Professional groups do not stop complaining about the devaluation of their work, not only in economic terms but also of prestige.
"The fact that more than half of young people are employed on temporary contracts undermines the development of their potential, so that part of people who are more educated than the average is not serving to improve the productivity of the English economy. The economyor are benefiting from their education, "says Andrés Fuentes, economist at the Department of the OECD Switzerland Espanaye specialist.
agency official report of 2008, also affects: "The economy has not experienced the full benefit of the huge influx of skilled workers, which represent 40% of those between 25 and 35 years. Manuel Jimenez is one of English graduates, as the OECD says, and not contribute to improving the competitiveness English. Three years ago decided to start his life in Madrid with her partner, Paulina, Finland. He graduatedLaw and a Masters in International Law, charged 700 euros for working without a contract with a humanitarian organization, and the wage tending a booth at night. She, his then girlfriend and now wife, also a law graduate, entered 1,000 for work in an architectural office.
"To me this picture struck me less because I knew the country, but Paulina ran out the world. Our idea was to live in Madrid, settle, but spent hard time making ends meet and my parents had to help me, "said the Spaniard, 29 years. After a year, replegaron candles. After a long trip to Honduras, camped in Helsinki and the scenario changed. "I now work, I have a PhD scholarship of 1,250 euros, and that here is not bad to live. Pauline works in an NGO for 1,850 euros a month, so we have our own apartment and do not need help from parents, "said Manuel. "Of course, here it is cold as hell, and three in the afternoon and at night. We would like to try again one day in Madrid, but it is not easy. "
differences Espanaye average wages between the countries around it are still relevant evenafter the equity method of purchasing power, ie discounting the effect of different levels of life. The 22,667 charged in Spain in the industry and services in contrast to the nearly 28,000 French and 41,000 in Germany (more data in table).
"
But is not that too many graduates in Spain, because Germany and the UK produce many Masy do not. The key is the added value of their economies. Is that Spain does not produce enough value jobs, "he hastens to emphasize Charles Martin, an economist at the research bureau of Workers' Commissions.
In fact,other OECD scolding because he has done the job market in Spain in the golden age between 1995 and 2005, the purchasing power of the average wage fell by 4%, ú nico decline in all countries of the organization. And two of every ten employees earn $ 1,000 gross per month, according to CC OO.
prospects are not good. The volume of skilled jobs has fallen by 8% between April 2007 and March 2008, while in September, the offer of such employment declined 25% over the same month last year, according to the report infoempleo.com, sponsored by La Caixa.
Although until now the lack of engineers or medical personnel in Spain has been no news. Manuel Acero, president of the Institute of Engineering in Spain, does not dispute that companies find it hard to find engineers, but complains that young people who have completed five years undergraduate project "we are offering salary of 22,000 euros per year, which does not correspond at all with the effort, which this country is not promoting education at all."
is true, given that if the worker has the patience, their working conditions are improving with the a &; About girls, you, but not all have or want to wait. And not everything is paid for with money. Steel also highlights the different organization of work: "This is based on making hours, there is much pressure to say or think what the chief, while in other countries more flexibility and commitment to the goals. " "There is much talk of R & D, but nothing is done," he laments.
A English young people are also attracted research opportunities in other countries. Jesus Guitarte, telecommunications engineer, was from Zaragoza to Munich in 2000 forhis final thesis project, and ended up doing a PhD. "In Spain I had not because it is done at the university, and that cuts off the wings, while here you research within a company, so you're gaining experience. And with a scholarship, "he adds. Where appropriate, the company was Siemens, the same company that became permanent worker to finish the doctorate. The health sector in Spain also lives in the contradiction of a shortage of local work hand and a progressive leakage of professionals to other countries. Why? Antonio Gallego, the union PhysiciansCatalonia is clear: "The pay is a problem, but also the workload, and social status: a sample is growing the number of attacks on professionals . Is that health becomes a commodity rather than a service. Consideration has been lost to the physician. Now hear, 'Hey, you let me down', and in other countries is not so. "
According to the union, the average salary of a doctor in Spain is among the 33,000 and 41,000 per year, while the UK achieves a range from 73,000 to 140,000 euros and in France Italia estto between 45,100 and 89,000. The nurses
something similar happens. Esther Vilarasau, SATs union, says the union "has lost purchasing power over the years", but agrees to turn that "it is not just wages, but the outreach and professional nurses have in other countries where there are different degrees of nursing specialties. " Galician
Nurse Natalia Varela says that she is in perfect proportions so
mileuristain Cambridge as in A Coruña, but with one difference: in Britain alone can do the postgraduate drama therapy (prá PRACTICE of teater with therapeutic purposes). It has therefore decided to stay.
She has landed in England by a company located in Valencia, Baker Street, making export intermediary to professional nurses and pharmacists to the UK. This year has sent a hundred nurses in the United Kingdom, "because there has been a hiatus since 2006," according to its director, Joshua C. Goldblatt, while in 2009 estimates will be about 200. They also send about 200 pharmacists. Sats
also highlights that much of the employment contracts offered in Spain for the guild are possible. The insecurity is one ofcontinuing care based on hints from the OECD. The English labor market persists in maintaining the highest rate of temporary employment in Europe: 31% of workers is possible, double that in the EU15 (14.8%) in the 27 ( 14.5%), and that in the four major
:France (14.4%), Italy (13.2%), UK (5.9%) and Germany (14.6%), followed No data from Eurostat, 2007.
To reverse the trend, the OECD urges policy reform Españaa protection of employees, since "such is the protection of permanent employees who hardly encourages mobility and the incorporation new employees, "says Fuentes. CHT
Marta B. MLXC Díez know a lot of reassignments. Works in the refugee assistance Red Cross in Brisbane, Australia, equivalent to 2,000 euros a month, an amount here allows you to pay your rent one, live and travel. Does not arise to return to Spain, and less with the crisis. "Social support is veryamateur in Spain, much less professionalized. It is as if not considered a job: when you complain they are underpaid, people are surprised, as if they had to do for free, "explains this degree in English philology, who has also worked in Leeds ( United Kingdom), but not in Spain. The worst of the depreciation of a professionalsion as social support, reflects, "is that people do not want to devote to it, it appears that only makes you who can not do other things."
