Book excerpt: In response to high levels of open unemployment accompanying the profound transformation of their national labour markets in the 1990's, the transition countries of Central and Eastern Europe launched a number of labour market policies and programmes with the aim of promoting the new employment of workers who were without a job.

Book excerpt: This book argues that active labour market policies are necessary to improve the position of the unemployed but have so far performed relatively poorly.

Download or read book Labour Market Policy and Unemployment written by Jaap Koning and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2001-01-01 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the effectiveness of active labour market policies and their contribution to the prevention of social exclusion. The evaluation studies reported in this volume focus on two aspects of active labour market policies that have been relatively neglected in previous research and merit special attention. The first part of the book deals with aggregate impact analysis. Using examples from France, Germany, The Netherlands and Spain, the contributors attempt to estimate the impact of active labour market policies on the transition from unemployment to employment using aggregate data at the regional level. Although quantitative in nature, these contributions take into account qualitative aspects such as the socio-economic context of the countries concerned and the structure of active labour market policies. The book then focuses on implementation issues and includes implementation studies carried out in Germany, The Netherlands and Sweden. The qualitative element plays a far more important role in these contributions which rely on case studies and surveys in addition to statistical data.

Download or read book Active Labour Market Policies Around the World written by Peter Auer and published by International Labour Organization. This book was released on 2005 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Active labor market policies (ALMPs) are found in almost all countries of the world but differ in amplitude, design, and implementation. Comprising an array of measures, ALMPs can take the form of special support for job searching, training and education for the unemployed, and various other subsidies and job creation activities. While providing a valuable overview of the nature of these policies, this book examines some of the pitfalls and challenges countries face when evaluating them. It also provides a policy framework for designing ALMPs that are permanent yet adaptable instruments to cope with changes linked to globalization. Contents Introduction Historical background of ALMPs Definition and functions of ALMPs Contribution of ALMPs to the objectives of employment creation, security in change, equity and poverty reduction Differences in the utilization of ALMPs: Developed, transition and developing countries Evaluation of ALMPs New trends in ALMPs Conclusions: A framework for the management of change Bibliography
Download or read book Labour Market Transformation in Transition Economies written by Avdullah Hoti and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2010-05 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the system of command economy broke up, profound changes took place in Central and Eastern Europe. The output changes involved a sharp decline followed by a recovery. Being virtually zero in the previous system, unemployment reached double-digits and in some countries it has stabilized at high levels, with the young and low-educated people being the hardest-hit groups. Due to the enterprise restructuring, many people moved from state to private sector with unemployment as the buffer zone. This study provides evidence that there is no fit- for all policy to handle unemployment during transition. The economic growth is the only long- term solution to unemployment. Examining the case of Albania and Bulgaria, the study finds that the current unemployment rate is determined not only by economic conditions within the country, but also by emigration of the labour force and non- participation. The existing policies fail to produce the desired results, due largely to a lack of coordination with the labour demand. The study provides a brief review of the labour market in Kosova and also develops some policy recommendations.
