Portugal faces a growing shortage of labor in various sectors, leading companies to seek more and more foreign workers to fill essential vacancies. The lack of professionals has been felt sharply in areas such as construction, transportation, textile industry, restoration and health, among others.

One of these vacancies appears in the Algarve, in Faro, with an annual remuneration that can reach 46,000 euros.
Professions most affected by scarcity are gardeners, kitchen helpers, cattle breeders, heavy truck drivers, seamstresses, mechanics, electricians, agricultural machine repairers, cooks, maids, construction workers, nurses and engineers. These sectors play a key role in the Portuguese economy, and the lack of labor can compromise the productivity and growth of companies.
