Description
Škoda Vagonka, a Czech rail vehicle producer, is to create 150 new jobs by the end of 2015. Recruitment of new employees is attributed to the acquisition of new customer orders. The company, which currently employs about 500 people, faces difficulties in staffing the factory with technically skilled employees as there is a huge shortage of them in the labour market.
