OFFICIALLY
SPEAKING
Scarce and critical skills are defined as those in absolute or relative demand for skilled, qualified and experienced people to fill particular roles/professions, occupations or specialisations in the labour market. Essentially, scarce skills are those job types for which employers cannot find suitably qualified or experienced employees.
