Slovakia keeps losing its elites |
Bratislava, 10.03.2017 |

Graduates from medical and technical schools top the list of students moving abroad. But family ties is a strong factor for returning back.
Veronika Hajduková graduated from the University of Veterinary Medicine and Pharmacy in her hometown of Košice, but lives and works in Prague.
“I decided to leave because of more job offers in my and also my husband’s specialisations and also salary conditions,” she told The Slovak Spectator. She and her husband are not planning to return.
Hajduková, who is now 27 years old, is one of about 300,000 people who have left Slovakia in the past 15 years. This number comes from an analysis published by the Institute of Financial Policy (IFP), which runs under the Finance Ministry. More than half of those who have left are under 30 years old.
Who leaves Slovakia?
The analysis is based on estimates of the registers kept by health insurance companies. In Slovakia, health insurance is compulsory but those who leave the country usually de-register with their insurers. As a result, it is more accurate than basing the statistics on changes in permanent residency, according to its authors.
