Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An insight into PES policies and practices. Public Employment Services are confronted with the ever-changing world of work from various angles: as organisation, as employer and as key actor on the labour market. Decisive mega trends such as globalisation, demographic shifts or migration, driven by tremendous technological developments and characterised by a considerable extent of complexity and volatility, have a huge impact on our labour markets and finally on PES. Guiding citizens through this (r)evolution and supporting them to manage necessary or desired transitions is a shared challenge of European PES and a huge public responsibility PES are actively taking up. Thereby PES are contributing to well-balanced labour markets which are essential for sustainable growth and for maintaining our social welfare supporting systems. PES jointly develop solutions through exchanging and learning from each other, rethinking practices and policies and continuously improving their organisations for more sustainable and inclusive labour markets and in order to better serve employers and jobseekers. This book gives an insight into PES policies and practices which are inspired by the close collaboration in the PES Network. PES Network members reflect on their European-wide learning organisation, they point out challenges and their strategic and operational answers from a national perspective, bringing in valuable personal experience. “PES Policies and Practices” thus touches upon a broad variety of PES core topics and gives you the chance to understand their business in a politically shaped environment, characterised by a unique collaboration. The collection of voices from the PES Network world in this book demonstrates the Network ́s potential to anticipate and respond to changes in the world of work. EXTRACT What is Benchlearning about? How do other Public Employment Services (PES) solve problems? What is the secret of their success? Can I learn from the others and transfer successful practices? PES try to find answers on these questions through “Benchlearning”. Comparing performance, benchmarking, was the main subject of the initial discussions in the Network of Heads of PES going back to the 1998s. Over time, the focus moved to mutual learning and the exchange of good practices across Europe. Benchlearning combines these two main elements. It is about interlinking benchmarking and mutual learning. In more detail: The PES Network Decision defines Benchlearning as “process of creating a systematic and integrated link between benchmarking and mutual learning activities that consists of identifying good performances through indicator-based benchmarking systems [...] and of using findings for tangible and evidence-informed mutual learning activities, including good or best practice models”.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can the EU's community of welfare states adapt their public policies to economic globalization? What happens when the economic and social aims of the EU come into conflict? This book examines the developing legal regimes and regulation of public services in the UK and other European countries. Public services are examined though a case-study of the complex area of public employment services. These are job-placement and vocational training services which aim to maximize employment and minimize unemployment within EU member States' Active Labour Market policies. Employment services are at the centre of a complex web of rules in both hard and soft forms of law deriving from the EU, national public law and from private, and at times contractual, agreements. They also lie at the crossroads of a series of trends in regulation, and priorities have been inspired by an array of conflicting policy rationales. These policy rationales include the establishment of an open and competitive European internal market, the establishment of an efficient welfare state, the scaling down of state administrative machinery, the fulfilment of core public service responsibilities, and the creation of public-private partnerships. Public employment services provide a highly informative and novel case study of the interaction and conflict between the economic and social aims of the EU and between regulation at national and supranational levels, and the changing forms which this regulation has taken.

Download or read book Employment Policies written by and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the next 10-15 years, the work force will change significantly in composition. The numbers of minority youth, high school dropouts, and teenage mothers--less well-educated segments of the population--will increase. Youth unemployment will rise, although the total number of youth will decline. Women, with their needs for child care and nontraditional employment, will account for the majority of labor force growth. The labor force will also be aging. At the same time, the workplace will change. From 5-15 million manufacturing jobs will be restructured; an equal number of service jobs will become obsolete. Disruptions from change will be great; the need for training and retraining will be significant. Business, public training institutions, school systems, private training institutions, and labor must work in partnership to provide the necessary education and training. The public must see education, training, and retraining as a lifelong process, vital to their working lives. Public/private partnerships are necessary to create jobs in distressed areas. A new employment policy is needed that encompasses traditional public training programs as well as public education systems. New forms of governance should be considered. Public/private institutions at all levels should be strengthened. Business will have to assume greater responsibility in training the work force. (YLB)
