    Local job creation : how employment and training agencies can help ; the labour agency of the autonomous province of Trento, Italy (2012)

    Keywords: Regionaler Arbeitsmarkt ; Arbeitsverwaltung ; Trient (Provinz) ; Employment ; Urban, Rural and Regional Development ; Industry and Services ; Italy ; Arbeitspapier ; Graue Literatur
    Abstract: How to stimulate growth and support job creation are two critical challenges that countries and localities confront and limited resources require lateral thinking about how actions in one area, such as employment and training, can have simultaneous benefits in others, such as creating new jobs and better supporting labour market inclusion. To achieve a more co-ordinated and joined up approach, local stakeholders need to pool resources and reduce transaction costs by building effective partnerships on the ground. The OECD Local Economic and Employment Development (LEED) programme has developed the international Local Job Creation project to assess the contribution of labour market policy to boosting quality employment and enhancing productivity by better matching skills supply to demand, improving training provision and addressing skills gaps, as well as improving skills utilisation by firms. This working paper, reports on the review carried out for the Labour Agency (Agenzia del Lavoro) of the Autonomous Province of Trento, Italy, and highlights both the strengths and weaknesses of policy approaches and actions taken by the Labour Agency. The working paper concludes with an outline of the key issues for consideration for the Labour Agency that could inform the development of an action plan in order to ensure the right conditions exist for sustainable job creation at the local level.

    Keywords: Job quality employment ; Arbeitsqualität
    Abstract: This Handbook offers an interdisciplinary and international benchmark text for anyone wanting to understand job quality. Job quality matters and has long done so. Debate about the future of work today centres on the impact of the new digital technologies, compounding existing concerns about the restructuring of employment and, importantly, proliferation of poor-quality jobs, often within the context of neo-liberal hegemony since the 1980s and the consequences of the Global Financial Crisis of the 2000s. Whilst job quality is offered as a solution to a range of challenges, it needs to be understood in all its complexity in terms of what it affects and what affects it. This Handbook draws together: first, an explicit focus on job quality as a factor in itself and as producing instrumental effects on other processes and outcomes; second, a catalogue of the diverse range of multiple contributions and applications; third, the complexity and multiple interpretations of job quality as a concept; and fourth avenues for job quality improvement. Each chapter provides distinct viewpoints on why job quality matters. As the volume attests, there are a range of ways in which job quality is relevant to an equally broad range of social, economic and political concerns.

    Series Statement: Employee Relations - Issue 4, Volume 29
    DDC: 306/.36
    Abstract: The articulation of work and life, cast as work-life balance, has become a key feature of much current government, practitioner and academic debate. The main message of this debate is the need for "good work-life balance". However, the debate and subsequent policy are too often based on assumptions about work and life derived from blunt readings of empirical data or misconceptions about employee attitudes to work and life. What is required therefore is analysis that explores the back-story to work-life balance debate as well as the operation of work-life balance policies. Compiling critical reflections on many aspects of the work-life balance.
