The study highlights some relevant aspects concerning the territorial changes in terms of quality of employment in the Romanian Danube Valley during the last two decades: the inverse correlation between the occupancy in agriculture and the level of quality of employment; very low and low levels of quality of employment widespread in the rural space and in the small Danubian towns, the quality of employment decline in the majority of the Romanian Danube Valley settlements.
