Labour migration and skills matching
This information note views labour migration as a vehicle for responding timely and effectively to labour supply and demand needs, for stimulating innovation and development, as well as for transferring and up-dating skills. In this context, designing and implementing sound labour market information systems, including accurate labour market needs assessment and skills anticipation, and putting in place processes for skills recognition is important to prevent brain waste and deskilling, poor labour market integration and deterioration of working conditions for all workers.
