Unemployment among approximately 5 million Turks living in European countries is above the average of countries where they live. While the percent of manufacturing sector in labor market decreased after the period of industry, the percent of sectors requiring qualified labor increased. As the demand for qualified labor increase, Turks being unqualified for the sectors employing qualified labor have to face with unemployment issue. A considerable part of Turks living in Europe being unqualified for the demands of labor market in information society and the education they receive being inadequate when confronted with unemployment is leading cause of this result.
