"Rapid technological advances and increasing use of information and communications technology (ICT) have increased demand for skilled labour dramatically. The share of employment in the ICT sector in the Netherlands is relatively high, over 8% compared to just over 6% for the OECD. The Netherlands has a relatively low share of ICT manufacturing employment but ranks third in ICT services employment. Demand for information technology workers in the Dutch services sector is expected to continue its upward trend."
