Qualitative Info

Such practices or policies cannot be found. A positive trend, however, is the increase in the percentage of Roma and Turkish minority employed in the health sector. From the year 2007 to 2010 the share of members of the Turkish minority working in the health sector increased from 2 per cent to 5.9 per cent, while the Roma increased from 1.8 per cent to 3.3 per cent for the same period.[1]
