Many years after the war, in the majority of ex Yugoslavian countries, the main topic has been unemployment issue. Countries passed the process of transition from centrally regulated economy into market oriented one. Money, as one of the highly mobile factor of production, came into region throughout financial channels. Opposite to money, contemporary skills, knowledge and proper attitude of workforce and employer did not come in the same manner. Education of workforce, due to idle and obsolete education system and due to the lack of awareness of importance of these issue in general, created economical environment with shortage of skilled and adequately trained workforce. In the years, 2001 to 2017 it was obvious that certain expertise and workers training were missing at the market, while on the other side, Employment Offices in the countries were recording steadily increase of unemployed people. Apart from mismatching of “supply and demand” of workforce, nobody paid attention to lack of knowledge and skill of “new owners of business”. Managerial skills of “new” owners of companies were not developed or supported by education or trainings, aiming to provide adequate human resource management skill. In Bosnia and Herzegovina, in last two years was recorded huge outflow of workers with various profile and educational level. Among other issues, three main reasons for this workforce mobility were disclosed: lack of political and social stability, low salaries level and mobbing or mistreatment by employer.
