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.

How to accelerate skills acquisition in the age of intelligent technologies. Today employers face a global skills crisis that could hold back the economic promise of intelligent technologies. Well beyond today’s talent shortages, digital innovations will continually and rapidly alter the demand for skills in the future. Incremental changes to the education and corporate learning systems will not be sufficient.

In response to this crisis, business leaders must completely rethink how to prepare their workforces, from anticipating the skills their organizations will need, to how they will help people learn and apply new skills throughout their careers. For leaders looking to drive growth in an incredibly competitive and rapidly changing business environment, investing in people is both responsible and cost effective.

This report examines the potential of new learning opportunities and offers recommendations for businesses, entrepreneurs and policy makers.

The annual Employment and Social Developments in Europe review (ESDE) analyses key employment and social issues for the European Union and its Member States. This year's edition focuses on the changing world of work and its employment and social implications. In a context of a shrinking working-age population in the EU, technological innovations that increase productivity become ever more crucial, but they also change the organization of production of goods and services and the world of work. Automation entails capital deepening, especially in the manufacturing sector and for low-skill tasks and routine activities. Other innovative technologies enable the emergence of new non-standard forms of work which allow more flexible re-organization of working time and space. Both capital deepening and new forms of work raise concerns about a possible decrease in standard, socially insured full-time employment, about potential job losses and decreasing job quality. Income inequalities and the gender pay gap are impacted as well and could amplify due to these trends. Atypical work also challenges the organization and financing of social protection mechanisms and the traditional way of representing worker and employer interests in the context of social dialogue.

However, the changing relationship between labour and capital brings about many new opportunities: innovative technologies increase productivity, create new jobs, facilitate inclusiveness on the labour market, and allow for a better work-life balance. Investments in education and the promotion of skills are key to reaping the benefits and lowering the risks from technological developments. As human and physical capital are complementary, policies which leverage the strong inter-generational effect of individuals' socio-economic background on their skills and labour market performance are of critical importance. Also, traditional distinctions made by the social protection systems need to be rethought in order to provide inclusive protection. Social partners are adapting to the developments in the labour market and could play a positive role in adjusting the existing legal framework to the new forms of work, including by managing the increased flexibility of working time and space in atypical work. The European Pillar of Social Rights provides a useful framework for adapting labour market and social systems to the new world of work to the benefit of the entire EU population.

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

TVET institutions

Technical and vocational education and training (TVET) institutions play an important role in equipping young people to enter the world of work and in improving their employability throughout their careers. The Global KSP collects and shares information from TVET institutions on how they respond to changing labour market needs, adopt new training technologies, expand the outreach of their training, and improve the quality of their services including in the areas of governance, financing, teacher education, and industry partnerships.

Lifelong learning

Thumbnail

There is a critical need for a greater overall investment in education and training, particularly in developing countries. Education and training investments should be closely linked to economic and employment growth strategies and programmes. Responsibility should be shared between the government (primary responsibility), enterprises, the social partners, and the individual. To make lifelong learning for all a reality, countries will need to make major reforms of their vocational and education and training systems. School-to-work schemes for young people should integrate education with workplace learning. Training systems need to become more flexible and responsive to rapidly changing skill requirements. Reforms should also focus on how learning can be facilitated, not just on training for specific occupational categories.

On the 27th of September, Cedefop will release the European Skills Index. On this occasion, a launch event will take place in Brussels.

The aim of the event is to present and discuss the results of the ESI and debate their implications for skills and labour market policies. Country rankings will be presented along with identifying key areas calling for intervention at both EU and country level. A panel debate will discuss how such an index can be used as a policy tool.

As a composite index, the European Skills Index (ESI) collapses a large number of indicators into a single measurement of a country’s skills system. The ESI considers three dimensions of a skills system: (a) skills development, (b) skills activation, and (c) skills matching. These distinct areas capture three different stages of the route of from learning to skills utilization in the labour market and at work.

Career guidance and employment services

Thumbnail

Career guidance and counselling, career education and lifelong development of skills for employability are key for success in learning activities, effective career transitions, livelihood planning, entrepreneurship and in increasing labour market participation. They are instrumental in promoting skills utilization, recognition (RPL), as well as in improving enterprise human resource management.

Career development activities encompass a wide variety of support activities including career information and advice, counselling, work exposure (e.g. job shadowing, work experience periods), assessment, coaching, mentoring, professional networking, advocacy, basic and employability skills training (curricular and non-curricular) and entrepreneurship training. It is often an area which is fragmented across different ministries (e.g. education, TVET, employment, youth) requiring an effort to achieve the necessary coordination to provide adequate support to individuals during learning, employment and unemployment/inactivity periods.

En este informe se muestra que, en lo que respecta al futuro laboral, la geografía es importante. El riesgo de la automatización del trabajo es mayor en algunas zonas que en otras. Las modalidades de empleo que no se ajustan a los estándares y que son facilitadas por la tecnología, también muestran notorias diferencias entre un país y otro, e influyen en las oportunidades de tener acceso a un empleo de calidad.

Las políticas nacionales armonizadas con acciones emprendidas por los gobiernos regionales y locales pueden ayudar a promover la automatización y la digitalización para mejorar la productividad, pero no a expensas de reducir la inclusión.

Création d'emplois et développement économique local 2018 (Résumé)

Ce rapport montre que la géographie influe sur l'avenir du travail. Le risque d'automatisation des emplois est plus élevé dans certaines régions que dans d'autres. L'examen des formes de travail atypiques, dont l'essor est favorisé par les évolutions technologiques, fait également apparaître des disparités frappantes à l'intérieur des pays, et elles influent sur les possibilités d'accès à des emplois de qualité.

Des politiques nationales en phase avec les interventions des administrations régionales et des collectivités locales peuvent favoriser des processus d'automatisation et de transformation numérique qui soient propices aux gains de productivité sans être préjudiciables à l'inclusion.
