Abstract
The goal of the report is to assess the current skills for different categories of railway staff, from workers to engineers, railway managers and researchers (task 1). The study on socioeconomic aspects of human capital starts with assessing the state of play regarding present employment situation considering work already done on forecasts for human capital in the railways, differentiating between different European regions. The following questions are central: What is the current employment level in the EU-railway sector? Can these figures be differentiated at the level of four regions/clusters? What is the distribution of employment according to job category and skill level? What are drivers for change in skill use? To what degree do working conditions play a role?
