 German is so efficient. You say "Fachkräftemangel" for "Companies not paying enough to attract suitable candidates and then complaining to the state to worsen the work environment for everyone so their shitty jobs find candidates again." what a beautiful language 
 @kaia wie, ich dachte "fachkräftemangel" liegt am rassismus 
 @kaia And "Hartz IV" means "technically not slavery" or something. It's a beautiful language, but sometimes difficult to translate

Well ... No.

(Payment is of course often an issue. But in many areas it is about the fact that there are e.g. 30 open positions and 5 suitable candidates. With payment and conditions you can regulate WHO gets the candidates, but not that all positions are filled. All in all "Fachkräftemangel" is not a subject area that lends itself well to blanket generalizations.)
