We suffer from that too. but the root is that our school system is a triple-class system, and a great percentatge of students of the low and middle class schools have incredible deficits in calculating, writing and reading. It is said that these problems hinder them to even understand what is demanded from them. We also have a disproportion between demnds for personnel in one field, and job-seeking young people with qualification for other fields. But "man-material" itself, counted in numbers, we have more than enough. as a matter of fact we have lesser jobs on offer, than we have peoiple seeking for jobs.

A not too small percentage of young people leaving school an having got a "Lehrstelle" (where they get training for a special job) are not taken over once their training has ended. What use has it to train people, if oyu atill have no work to be done, only "mini-jobs" and "1-Euro-jobs"? The phenomenon of the "working poor" since long is no longer an excusively American one.
