The Evaluation of Active Labour Market Policies
Author: Jaap Koning
Publisher: Edward Elgar Publishing
ISBN: 9781781953013
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 424
Book Description
This book argues that active labour market policies are necessary to improve the position of the unemployed but have so far performed relatively poorly. The contributing authors seek ways to improve active labour market policy and consider three means of doing so: improving the quality by better targeting and by better-designed measures, more efficient implementation and delivery, and better performance by benchmarking the various implementation agencies involved.

Author: Julie Castonguay
Publisher: Amsterdam University Press
ISBN: 9056295756
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 394
Book Description
Social benchmarking is an evaluation method in which the performance levels of different public social programs are compared, either relatively to each other or to an absolute value. The first part of this research discusses the use of social benchmarking for the evaluation of active labour market policies. This part also develops a social benchmark model, which can be used to assess the performance of active labour market policies in general, and work-based employment programs in specific. The second part of this research consists of the actual benchmarking of the work-based employment programs in five countries: Australia, Canada, the Netherlands, Switzerland and the United Kingdom

Active Labour Market Policies Around the World
Author: Peter Auer
Publisher: International Labour Organization
ISBN: 9789221157892
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 104
Book Description
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

Benchmarking Working Europe 2011
Author:
Publisher: ETUI
ISBN: 2874522082
Category : Industrial relations
Languages : en
Pages : 116
Book Description
Is the Europe 2020 strategy leading us, as it promises, towards smart, sustainable and inclusive growth? This is the main question addressed by this publication on the eve of this year’s Spring European Summit. The ETUC and ETUI offer a critical assessment of the strategy and its various components: will it be able to provide a framework for the creation of more and better-quality jobs? Are the policies and indicators set to promote an increase in social cohesion? How can workers better participate in the achievement of these various aims? Benchmarking Working Europe 2011 is structured in eight topical chapters illustrated by a significant number of graphs, and has a completely new layout. The various chapters on the different facets of Europe 2020 contain a carefully argued and critical analysis of the design and contents of the European mid-term strategy and of the state of the European economic, employment and social indicators. They question the underlying foundation which firmly places the emphasis on fiscal consolidation while neglecting the need for economic growth and quality jobs. The major problem is that, if the (macro) economics are wrong, all the other laudable targets and procedures in the Europe 2020 strategy – raising education standards and R&D spending, reducing poverty – will prove entirely illusory, further undermining the credibility of Europe. Several of the contributions to this volume show that it is rather by raising social and environmental standards and wellbeing that we might succeed in achieving a sustainable growth pattern and a healthier and more cohesive society for the future.

Public Employment Services
Author: Fons Leroy
Publisher: Die Keure Publishing
ISBN: 2874035726
Category : Political Science
Languages : fr
Pages : 333
Book Description
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”. ABOUT AUTHORS Fons Leroy was the chief executive officer of VDAB, the Flemish Public Employment Service, and current Chair of the European Network of Public Employment Services. Lenka Kint was from 2011 to 2017 Executive Sercetary at WAPES, the World Association of Public Employment Services, and is currently Strategic accountmanager International Relations at VDAB. Martina Winkler is a Seconded National Expert from the German Federal Employment Agency to the EU Commission, working in the PES Network Secretariat on the Benchlearning initiative.
