Abstract
In 2016, the Global Strategy on human resources for health: Workforce 2030 has been adopted, outlining policy options for WHO Member States, responsibilities of the WHO Secretariat and
recommendations for other stakeholders on how to: optimize the health workforce to accelerate
progress towards UHC and the SDGs; understand and prepare for future needs of health systems,
harnessing the rising demand in health labour markets to maximize job creation and economic growth;
build the institutional capacity to implement this agenda; and strengthen data on HRH for monitoring
and ensuring accountability of implementation of both national strategies and the Global Strategy itself.
In the light of the above, Macedonia has initiated the process of development of an Action Plan for
Human Resources for Health (HRH), precedent to which is situation analysis and defining the potentials
for the future, depicted in this Human Resources for Health profile.
Data was gathered throughout 2016 and first quarter of 2017, from national and international sources.
The approach taken was analysis of human resources in the health sector; initial considerations of
other human resources working for health have shown that a much wider theoretical framework,
definitions and data sources are needed, which are currently not available in the needed format.
Analysis of available data showed that there is significant lack of human resources in health sector in
general, and in specific areas in particular. The profile clearly points to the need for development of
comprehensive action plan for human resources, in line with the current legislation and policy
frameworks of the country. Also, given the dynamics of labor market, and health system in particular,
country could benefit from establishment of electronic database of human resources in health, which
can serve as real time monitoring and assessment tool of the future needs, both in terms of
development, employment and utilization of the health workforce.
