2021 was a challenging year for Peruvian companies, despite this, the country’s economy showed sustained growth, mainly supported by strategic sectors, such as mass consumption and retail (+17.8%), transport and logistics (+17.7%), mining (+7.5%), telecommunications (+7.6%) and banking and insurance (+5.9%), as shown in the technical report on national production presented by the National Institute of Statistics and Informatics (INEI).
According to Claudio Abdala, commercial director of Adecco Peru, this growth generated new challenges in terms of human resources, not only to be able to cover the demand for growth in formal employment, but also to combat absenteeism caused by the coronavirus.
Changes and challenges facing the economic reactivation in 2022
Changes in the way of working, routines and consumption have made a difference in the mass consumption, logistics, e-commerce and telecommunications sectors, and have increased the volume of demand sustained by these new habits.
In this way, in the words of Abdala, in terms of mass consumption and retail, these will continue to show a trend of recovery of activity that should be accompanied by sectors such as transport, logistics and industry.
Along these lines, he pointed out that there are other areas whose adaptation has not progressed at the same pace and that they still have a lot of room to recover, so they will need more time. Thus, the growth of these will depend directly on the restrictions that are established at the social level and the development of the pandemic in Peru, as well as on the financial stability that the country shows to encourage new investments.
“This new panorama, without a doubt, will be very encouraging for the generation of new opportunities in formal and quality employment,” said Claudio Abdala, commercial director of Adecco Peru.
