ILO

The International Labour Organization is the tripartite U.N. agency that promotes Decent Work through employment, social security, labour standards and social dialogue. Its work on skills development is guided by the conceptual framework on Skills to improve productivity, employment growth, and development agreed in 2008 by representatives of Governments, Employers’ Associations and Workers’ Associations. Research, policy advice, and pilot projects and technical cooperation programmes to apply good practices in different circumstances across its 185 member States aims to boost the employability of workers, the productivity and competitiveness of enterprises, and the inclusiveness of economic growth. The ILO Secretariat in offices in 40 countries works with Ministries of Labour, employers’ organizations, and trade unions to integrate skills development into national and sector development strategies in order to better meet current labour market needs and to prepare for the jobs of the future; to expand access to employment-related training so that youth, persons with disabilities and other vulnerable groups are better able to acquire skills and secure productive and decent work; and to improve the ability of public employment services to provide career guidance, maintain labour exchange services, and deliver active labour market programmes.For more information regarding the ILO’s work on skills and employability go to: http://www.ilo.org/skills/lang--en/index.htm; for ILO/Cinterfor's Knowledge Management Plarform, see: http://www.oitcinterfor.org

Skills policies and strategies

Thumbnail

Skills and employment policies should be viewed together.  The full value of one policy set is realized when it supports the objectives of the other.  For investments in education and training to yield maximum benefit to workers, enterprises, and economies, countries’ capacities for coordination is critical in three areas: connecting basic education to technical training and then to market entry; ensuring continuous communication between employers and training providers so that training meets the needs and aspirations of workers and enterprises, and integrating skills development policies with industrial, investment, trade, technology, environmental, rural and local development policies.

Access to training

Thumbnail

Access for all to good quality education, vocational training and workplace learning is a fundamental principle of social cohesion and economic growth. Some groups of people may require targeted attention if they are to benefit from education, training and employment opportunities.  

This is particularly the case for disadvantaged youth, lower skilled workers, people with disabilities, and people in rural communities. The attractiveness of vocational education and training is enhanced when combined with entrepreneurship training and when public policies encourage utilization of higher skills by business.

Anticipating and matching skills needs

Thumbnail

Anticipating and building skills for the future is essential to a rapidly changing labour market. This applies to changes in the types and levels of skills needed as well as in occupational and technical areas. Effective methods to anticipate future skills needs and avoid potential mismatches include: sustained dialogue between employers and trainers, coordination across government institutions, labour market information systems, employment services and performance reviews of training institutions.

Ce rapport établit un état des lieux de la mise en œuvre des mesures pour l'emploi des seniors suite au rapport de 2003 "Vieillissement et politiques de l’emploi : Suisse" et identifie les champs prioritaires d’actions à mener ou à poursuivre. La Suisse se situe dans le peloton de tête des pays de l’OCDE pour ce qui concerne le taux d’emploi des personnes âgées. Pourtant, elle est parmi les champions uniquement pour les hommes de moins de 60 ans et pour les diplômés de l’enseignement supérieur tandis qu’il suffit d’avoir 60-64 ans, d’être une femme ou de ne pas avoir de diplôme de l’enseignement supérieur pour ne plus être parmi les meilleurs. Davantage pourrait donc être fait pour donner à tous les travailleurs de meilleurs choix et incitations pour continuer à travailler. Une stratégie d’ensemble est nécessaire pour qu’une meilleure gestion des âges soit menée dans les entreprises, le rôle des autorités publiques étant d’encourager les partenaires sociaux à investir plus dans les travailleurs âgés. Trois axes doivent être privilégiés : i) renforcer les incitations pour travailler plus longtemps ; ii) lever les obstacles au recrutement et au maintien dans l’emploi destravailleurs âgés ; et iii) améliorer l’employabilité des travailleurs

L’espérance de vie n’a jamais été aussi élevée qu’aujourd’hui tandis que la fécondité est en diminution dans la majorité des pays de l’OCDE. Pour faire face à ces tendances démographiques, il faut adapter les dépenses publiques de protection sociale et assurer leur viabilité à long terme, en particulier en favorisant l’emploi des seniors. Avec le recul de l’âge légal de la retraite, les seniors vont travailler plus longtemps et les entreprises devront les garder en emploi. Mais parmi les seniors, ceux qui perdent leur emploi risquent de rester longtemps au chômage car leurs chances d’en retrouver un sont faibles. Comment les pays peuvent-ils réagir face à cette réalité ? Comment donner aux seniors de meilleurs choix et incitations au travail ? Comment promouvoir la diversité des âges dans les entreprises ? Cette série de rapports s’attache à analyser et évaluer quelles sont les meilleures politiques à mener pour favoriser l'employabilité, la mobilité professionnelle et la demande de travail à un âge plus élevé.

Youth employability

Thumbnail

Globally, nearly 68 million young women and men are looking for and available for work,  and an estimated 123 million young people are working but living in poverty. The number who are not in employment, education or training (NEET) stands at 267 million, a majority of whom are young women. Significantly, young people are three times as likely as adults (25 years and older) to be unemployed.

Skills development is a primary means of enabling young people to make a smooth transition to work. A comprehensive approach is required to integrate young women and men in the labour market, including relevant and quality skills training, labour market information, career guidance and employment services, recognition of prior learning, incorporating entrepreneurship with training and effective skills forecasting. Improved basic education and core work skills are particularly important to enable youth to engage in lifelong learning as well as transition to the labour market.

Ce concours est organisé par le Centre international UNESCO-UNEVOC à l'occasion de la Journée internationale des compétences des jeunes en juillet 2017.

L’EFTP est souvent considéré comme un enseignement de second ordre, et la question de son prestige est discutée depuis des décennies. Dans le monde entier, le développement de l’enseignement et de la formation techniques et professionnels a souffert d’un manque d’investissements, de qualité et de pertinence. Néanmoins, dans un monde où nombre de pays se trouvent confrontés à un fort chômage des jeunes, à une mutation accélérée des marchés du travail, à des percées technologiques et à des inégalités sociales persistantes, le rôle capital de l’EFTP gagne en reconnaissance. L’EFTP étant orienté sur le monde du travail et dispensant des compétences pour l'emploi, il est bien placé pour relever ces défis mondiaux et joue par ailleurs un rôle essentiel dans la promotion du développement durable.

Qu’elles aient été acquises à l’école ou au travail, les compétences sont mises en œuvre tous les jours sur toute la planète pour parvenir à un monde meilleur. Malheureusement, rares sont les études pratiques et instructives témoignant du profit que dans le monde entier on tire de l’enseignement et de la formation techniques et professionnels. Il reste ainsi largement méconnu, ce qui fait obstacle à une prise de conscience et au renforcement des investissements dans l’EFTP.

Les objectifs du concours sont les suivants:

- Sensibiliser aux avantages de l’EFTP.

médiatiser l’EFTP comme un moyen de relever des défis mondiaux tels que la pauvreté, le chômage des jeunes et l’inégalité.

- Récompenser les efforts consentis par les jeunes pour promouvoir le développement durable dans leurs communautés par l’acquisition de compétences et leur mise en œuvre.

- Constituer une photothèque UNESCO-UNEVOC qui permettra aux acteurs de l’EFTP de promouvoir l’enseignement et la formation techniques et professionnels au moyen de divers projets de diffusion et de publication.

This competition is organized by the UNESCO-UNEVOC International Center on the occasion of International Youth Skills Day in July 2017.

TVET is often seen as second-rate education, and the question of its prestige has been debated for decades. Worldwide, the development of technical and vocational education and training has suffered from a lack of investment, quality and relevance. However, in a world where many countries face high youth unemployment, accelerated change in labor markets, technological breakthroughs and persistent social inequalities, the crucial role of TVET is gaining recognition. As TVET is focused on the world of work and provides skills for employment, it is well placed to address these global challenges and also plays a vital role in promoting sustainable development.

Whether acquired at school or at work, skills are used every day across the planet to achieve a better world. Unfortunately, there are few practical and informative studies documenting the benefits that technical and vocational education and training are gaining worldwide. It therefore remains largely unknown, which hinders awareness and increased investment in TVET.

The objectives of the competition are:

- To raise awareness of the benefits of TVET.

publicize TVET as a way to address global challenges such as poverty, youth unemployment and inequality.

- Reward the efforts made by young people to promote sustainable development in their communities through the acquisition of skills and their implementation.

- Establish a UNESCO-UNEVOC photo library which will enable TVET stakeholders to promote technical and vocational education and training through various dissemination and publication projects.

Initiative pour le centenaire de l’OIT

Une évolution profonde de la nature du travail s’opère dans les pays du monde entier, quel que soit leur stade de développement. Les vecteurs de changement sont multiples et divers: l’évolution démographique, les changements climatiques, l’innovation technologique, les frontières mouvantes de la pauvreté et de la prospérité, le creusement des inégalités, la stagnation économique et les nouveaux visages de la production et de l’emploi. Les transformations auxquelles nous assistons nous mettent aujourd’hui au défi d’imaginer l’avenir du travail à long terme afin d’orienter cette évolution vers davantage de justice sociale. L’inquiétude généralisée grandissante quant au fait de savoir si l’avenir sera synonyme d’une polarisation plus marquée au sein des pays et entre eux exige d’agir de toute urgence.

Reconnaissant qu’il est urgent de commencer à mobiliser les compétences mondiales pour faire de l’avenir du travail celui que nous voulons, l’OIT a lancé en 2013 l’initiative du centenaire sur l’avenir du travail. Dans le cadre de cette initiative, le colloque offre une excellente occasion de mieux comprendre les changements dont nous sommes témoins et de trouver des moyens d’action efficaces pour façonner l’avenir du travail. Ce colloque s’articulera autour des quatre «conversations du centenaire» – travail et société, des emplois décents pour tous, l’organisation du travail et de la production et la gouvernance du travail – et réunira des spécialistes et des acteurs internationaux qui sont à l’avant-garde dans les débats sur chaque sujet. Une séance spéciale sera consacrée aux perspectives pour les jeunes et à leurs points de vue, y compris celui des représentants des partenaires sociaux, sur l’avenir du travail qui sera le leur.

The report shows how countries can make the most of global value chains, socially and economically, by investing in the skills of their populations. Applying a “whole of government” approach is crucial. Countries need to develop a consistent set of skills-related policies such as education, employment protection legislation, and migration policies, in coordination with trade and innovation policies. This report presents new analyses based on the Survey of Adult Skills and the Trade in Value Added Database. It also explains what countries would need to do to specialise in technologically advanced industries.

From East to West, the economies of Europe and Central Asia (ECA) are not taking full advantage of the internet to foster economic growth and job creation. The residents of Central Asia and the South Caucasus pay some of the highest prices in the world for internet connections that are slow and unreliable. In contrast, Europe enjoys some of the world’s fastest and affordable internet services. However, its firms and individuals are not fully exploiting the internet to achieve higher productivity growth as well as more and better jobs. Reaping Digital Dividends investigates the barriers that are holding back the broader adoption of the internet in ECA.

The report identifies the main bottlenecks and provides policy recommendations tailored to economies at varying levels of digital development. It concludes that policies to increase internet access are necessary but not sufficient. Policies to foster competition, international trade and skills supply, as well as adapting regulations to the changing business environment and labor markets, will also be necessary. In other words, Reaping Digital Dividends not only requires better connectivity, but also complementary factors that allow governments, firms and individuals to make the most out of it.
