Most Roma unemployed in Serbia
A huge majority of Serbia’s Roma families do not have a single member in permanent employment, a Roma organization head said on Thursday.
Roma World President Turkijan Redzepi said some 27,000 of the country’s estimated 150,000 Roma are unemployed at present, adding that the number is probably much higher because many Roma do not register with the National Employment Service while others do not register as Roma.
“There are affirmative measures for Roma employment >> Pročitaj celu vest na sajtu N1 televizija << but there are no concrete results. Employers are not too interested in employing Roma and the Roma do not choose to start their own businesses,” he told around table debate on employment measures for Roma.
Redzepi said that the government set aside 1.2 billion Dinars last year to stimulate entrepreneurship with 14.4 million earmarked for the Roma community. Less than 150 Roma men and women applied for the funds, he said.
