Jobs in Cuba
Submitted by jobzing on 20 October 2011
The Cuban government, with its communist leanings, oversees the complete planning and centralized control of the economy.
Yet, investment from foreign lands, which will ultimately lead to an improvement in the current market situation for jobs in Cuba, is being encouraged. Finding jobs in Cuba is easier in the government sector, as about 76% of all means of production are state owned and government managed.
In Cuba, both hospitals and schools are government managed and hence teaching and nursing jobs are not hard to come by.
The Cuban economy is rapidly recovering from the sharp decline in its GDP between 1989 and 1993. The Government of Cuba has taken many reformatory steps to curb the excessive liquidity of the currency.
It is also determined to increase incentives for laborers and tackle the acute shortage of food, consumer articles and services on a war footing.
Cuba, the land of Havana cigars, has recently opened up its tourism sector. The government has also allowed Foreign Direct Investments (FDI) and partial convertibility of the U.S. Dollar. Authorization of about 150 self-employment avenues has resulted in modest economic growth. Lawful consumption has increased and illegal deals have reduced after the liberalized agricultural markets were started in October 1994.
Although sugar was the mainstay of Cuban industries, it has been overtaken by tourism in recent times egged on by the government policies. According to Cuban officials, millions of tourists are flocking Cuba each year helping the country to earn billions of dollars in revenue. It has, however, led to the growth of a dual economy; fueled on the one hand by the dollar-rich tourism and hospitality industry and on the other by the peso economy driven public sector. Hotel jobs in Cuba and management jobs in Cuba have opened up since the activation of the reforms.
