    Abstract: Improving the performance of youth on the labour market is a crucial challenge in OECD countries facing persistent youth unemployment. As labour markets become more and more selective, a lack of relevant skills brings a higher risk of unemployment. Whatever the level of qualification, first experiences on the labour market have a profound influence on later working life. Getting off to a good start facilitates integration and lays the foundation for a good career, while a failure can be difficult to make up. OECD has launched a series of reports on the school-to-work transition process in sixteen countries including New Zealand. Each report contains a survey of the main barriers to employment for young people, an assessment of the adequacy and effectiveness of existing measures to improve the transition from school-to-work, and a set of policy recommendations for further action by the public authorities and social partners.This report is based on the proceedings of a seminar and is published in English only. However, a French translation of the summary and main recommendations has been included in this volume.

    Keywords: Employment ; Social Issues/Migration/Health ; Economics
    Abstract: Croissance et inégalités réunit de nombreuses analyses de la distribution des ressources économiques dans les pays de l'OCDE. Les données présentées sur la distribution des revenus et la pauvreté couvrent, pour la première fois, l'ensemble des 30 pays de l'OCDE au milieu des années 2000. En outre, des informations sur les évolutions observées depuis le milieu des années 80 sont fournies pour environ deux tiers d'entre eux. Cet ouvrage décrit également les inégalités dans divers domaines (tels que le patrimoine des ménages, les modes de consommation ou les services publics en nature) qui sont généralement exclus des analyses classiques sur la distribution des ressources économiques entre les individus et les ménages. Le lecteur trouvera dans ce rapport les informations les plus complètes, objectives et à jour qui soient. Il s’agit d’une référence essentielle pour permettre aux pouvoirs publics d'éviter un accroissement des inégalités sans sacrifier pour autant l'efficience de l'économie.

    Abstract: Improving the performance of youth on the labour market is a crucial challenge in many OECD countries and first experiences on the labour market have a profound influence on later working life. This report on Norway, one of a series of country studies, surveys the main barriers to employment for young people in Norway, assesses of the adequacy and effectiveness of existing measures to improve the transition from school to work in the country, and presents set of policy recommendations. It finds that on most counts, the youth labour market in Norway performs well, but that the incidence of sickness and disability is unusually high, immigrant youth do not fare as well, and more needs to be done to ensure that all youth leave education with recognised qualifications.

    Parallel Title: Parallelausg. Effective Aid, Better Health
    Keywords: Social Issues/Migration/Health ; Development
    Abstract: Ces dernières années, l’aide en faveur de la santé a plus que doublé pour s’établir d’après des sources gouvernementales et privées, autour de 16.7 milliards dollars des ÉU en 2006. Cette aide donne des résultats tangibles, épargnant la vie de millions d’individus et préservant les moyens de subsistance de leur famille. Le défi à relever maintenant consiste à porter le montant de l’aide à des niveaux qui permettent d’atteindre les Objectifs du millénaire pour le développement. L’analyse des tendances observées au cours de la décennie écoulée fait apparaître une fragmentation de l’aide en faveur de la santé en une multitude de petits projets, plus de deux tiers de l’ensemble des engagements portant sur des montants inférieurs à 500 000 dollars des ÉU. Une fraction relativement faible des ressources va directement au budget des pays, et une part importante sert à financer des projets régionaux et plurinationaux. La question de savoir en quoi l’aide peut favoriser la mise en place de systèmes nationaux efficaces revêt une importance particulière dans le secteur de la santé. Il est indispensable que les pays disposent d’hôpitaux et de cliniques bien gérés, d’agents de santé qualifiés et de filières efficientes d’achat de médicaments pour améliorer réellement l’état de santé de leur population.

    Abstract: Growing Unequal? brings together a range of analyses on the distribution of economic resources in OECD countries. The evidence on income distribution and poverty covers, for the first time, all 30 OECD countries in the mid-2000s, while information on trends extending back to the mid-1980s is provided for around two-thirds of the countries. The report also describes inequalities in a range of domains (such as household wealth, consumption patterns, in-kind public services) that are typically excluded from conventional discussion about the distribution of economic resources among individuals and households. The report provides evidence of a fairly generalised increase in income inequality over the past two decades across the OECD, but the timing, intensity and causes of the increase differ from what is typically suggested in the media. Precisely how much inequality there is in a society is not determined randomly, nor is it beyond the power of governments to change, so long as they take note of the sort of up-to-date evidence included in this report. This report includes StatLinks, URLs linking tables and graphs in the book to Excel® spreadsheets containing the data.

    Abstract: When immigrants arrive in a new country, they are confronted with new labour market requirements such as language proficiency, familiarity with job search procedures and work practices which they are not always able to satisfy. These obstacles affect not only new immigrants, but, surprisingly, their children too, even if the children are born and educated in the receiving country. This publication presents reviews of the labour market integration of immigrants and their children in four OECD countries (Belgium, France, the Netherlands and Portugal), and provides country-specific recommendations. Governments have a role to play in promoting language and vocational training, and encouraging diversity in the workplace. Immigrants themselves must accept the requirements of the host country employers. The viability of future migration policies, in particular greater recourse to immigration, will depend to a large extent on how successful OECD countries and immigrants are in achieving these objectives.

    Abstract: Sustainable development depends on maintaining long-term economic, social, and environmental capital. In failing to make the best use of their female populations, most countries are underinvesting in the human capital needed to assure sustainabilitly. This market and systems failure is discussed in this publication in terms of gender constraints, which are based on the socially-constructed and historically developed roles of men and women. It also illuminates how female contributions can be better realized at present and how strategies can be developed for meeting the needs of future generations. This report is a contribution by the OECD to the UN Commission on Sustainable Development and its cross-cutting work on gender.

    Series Statement: OECD Reviews of Labour Market and Social Policies
    Keywords: Employment ; Social Issues/Migration/Health ; Serbia
    Abstract: To catch up with more advanced economies, Serbia urgently needs to improve the functioning of its labour market. This report reviews labour market trends and the principle challenges to labour market policy, making a series of recommendations. Despite many reforms, new business growth until now has been far too slow to compensate for job losses elsewhere. Recent reforms of labour law should be followed up by further efforts to improve the climate for business and productive work. Labour regulations must be flexible, but they should also be enforced more consistently. For all this to happen, it is essential that an effective social dialogue can take place and that it encompasses expanding and declining segments of the labour market.

    Abstract: Pharmaceutical policy making raises particular challenges in reconciling key objectives for health policy, such as ensuring affordable access to the latest effective drugs, with other important policy considerations, such as providing support to a valuable national industry. Unusually among health policy issues, it also raises international considerations that further complicate decision making, particularly as the nature and extent of such considerations are not well understood. This report assesses how pharmaceutical pricing and reimbursement policies have contributed to the achievement of certain health policy objectives. It examines the national and transnational effects of these policies, in particular, their implications for the availability of medicines in other countries, the prices of these medicines, and innovation in the pharmaceutical sector. This publication presents an analysis of comparative price levels, making use of a unique dataset to construct the most comprehensive pan-OECD pharmaceutical price index to date. It also draws upon original case studies of pharmaceutical pricing and reimbursement policies in six OECD countries to provide specific examples of the impacts of policies on health system performance.

    Abstract: In a world which is already characterised by significant international migration of health workers, OECD countries face a challenge in responding to the growing demand for doctors and nurses over the next 20 years. This book provides new information on the migration of health workers and migration policies and identifies possible ways forward. It is the main outcome of a joint OECD-WHO project on the management of health-related human resources and international migration.

    Series Statement: OECD Health Working Papers no.31
    Keywords: Social Issues/Migration/Health ; Slovak Republic
    Abstract: This paper examines aspects of the policy environment and market characteristics of Slovakia's pharmaceutical sector, and assesses the degree to which Slovakia has achieved certain policy goals. Pharmaceutical expenditure in Slovakia accounts for a higher share of total health expenditure than it does in any other OECD country, and the share of national income going to pharmaceuticals is exceeded only in Hungary. Although its relatively low national income is a partial explanation for Slovakia's status in this respect, this review finds that Slovakia has scope to reduce its expenditures and the rapid rate of growth in its pharmaceutical spending. Financing of pharmaceutical expenditure in Slovakia rests more heavily on the public sector than is typical in the OECD, with out-of-pocket spending accounting for just a quarter of total expenditure. The effectiveness of international price referencing in limiting Slovak prices for on-patent pharmaceutical products is questionable. For products that have gone off-patent and for those with similar chemical structure, a reference-pricing scheme and competition among generic alternatives results in effective price control, although incentives for generic substitution are weak (for patients) and misaligned (for pharmacists). When deciding whether a drug will be reimbursed through the social insurance scheme, the cost-effectiveness of new pharmaceuticals is not assessed. On the other hand, certain policy goals have been achieved. The accessibility and availability of medicines--including the most innovative products--is good; affordability is supported by relatively low average co-payment levels. While more expensive drugs usually have higher cost-sharing, drugs are not excluded from coverage on affordability grounds.

    Keywords: Social Issues/Migration/Health ; Canada
    Abstract: This report examines the role played by immigrant health workers in the Canadian health workforce but also the interactions between migration policies and education and health workforce management policies. Migrant health worker makes a significant contribution to the Canadian health workforce. Around 2005-06, more than 22% of the doctors were foreign-trained and 37% were foreign-born. The corresponding figures for nurses are close to 7.7% and 20%, respectively. Foreign-trained doctors play an important role in rural areas as they contribute to filling the gaps. In most rural areas, on average, 30% of the physicians were foreign-trained in 2004. Over past decades the evolution of the health workforce in Canada has been characterised notably by a sharp decline in the density of nurses and a stable density of doctors, which is in contrast with the trends observed in other OECD countries. This evolution is largely the result of measures were adopted at the end of the 1980s and early 1990s in order to address a perceived health workforce surplus.

This third report in the OECD series Sickness, Disability and Work explores the possible factors behind this paradox. It looks specifically at the cases of Denmark, Finland, Ireland and the Netherlands, and highlights the roles of institutions and policies. A range of reform recommendations is put forward to deal with specific challenges facing the four countries.

    Abstract: Établir un équilibre convenable entre vie familiale et vie professionnelle est un enjeu auquel tous les parents sont confrontés. Certaines personnes voudraient avoir des enfants, ou un plus grand nombre, mais ne voient pas comment concilier cette responsabilité et leur situation professionnelle. D’autres parents sont heureux du nombre d’enfants que compte la famille mais souhaiteraient travailler davantage. D’autres encore, comblés par leur situation familiale, aimeraient aussi parfois avoir des horaires de travail différents ou réduire leur temps de travail pour s’occuper davantage de leurs enfants. Ce rapport synthétise les résultats des treize volumes précédents et étend son étude à d’autres pays de l’OCDE. Il étudie les systèmes de fiscalité/prestations, les congés parentaux, les systèmes de garde d’enfants et les pratiques professionnelles en entreprise.

    Abstract: Improving the performance of youth on the labour market is a crucial challenge in OECD countries facing persistent youth unemployment. As labour markets become more and more selective, a lack of relevant skills brings a higher risk of unemployment. Whatever the level of qualification, first experiences on the labour market have a profound influence on later working life. OECD has launched a series of reports on the school-to-work transition process in sixteen countries including the Netherlands. Each report contains a survey of the main barriers to employment for young people, an assessment of the adequacy and effectiveness of existing measures to improve the transition from school-to-work, and a set of policy recommendations.

    Abstract: Face à la persistance du chômage des jeunes, leur insertion dans l'emploi reste une préoccupation majeure des pays de l'OCDE. Le marché du travail est de plus en plus sélectif et un manque de diplômes accroît le désavantage comparatif. Quel que soit le niveau de diplôme, les premières expériences sur le marché du travail à la sortie de l’école conditionnent fortement la trajectoire professionnelle. Ce rapport sur le Canada analyse les principales barrières à l'emploi des jeunes et évalue la pertinence et l'efficacité des dispositifs existants pour faciliter la transition de l'école à l'emploi. Il présente également une série de recommandations.

    Abstract: La situation mondiale étant d'ores et déjà caracterisée par des flux migratoires internationaux importants, les pays de l'OCDE seront confrontés à une demande croissante en médecins et en infirmiers au cours des vingt prochaines années. Cet ouvrage présente des faits nouveaux sur chacune de ces questions et trace quelques pistes pour la marche à suivre dans l'avenir. Il résulte d'un projet conjointement mené par l'OCDE et l'OMS sur la gestion des ressources humaines dans le secteur de la santé et des migrations internationales.

    Abstract: Les changements démographiques déterminent les politiques sociales : la majorité des pays de l’OCDE voient leur population vieillir et comporter plus de migrants et de « minorités ». Au Japon et en Corée, les effectifs étudiants de l’enseignement supérieur ont commencé à baisser, alors qu’ils devraient connaître une forte croissance en Turquie ou au Mexique. À partir de tendances et de projections, cet ouvrage étudie dans le détail toutes ces questions à la fois sur les plans qualitatif et quantitatif. Il examine entre autres l’impact des changements démographiques sur les effectifs étudiants, sur les niveaux d’éducation, sur le personnel enseignant et sur les choix politiques. Il s’intéresse par exemple aux politiques d’accès à l’enseignement supérieur et à leur effet sur la taille et la composition des effectifs, en examinant notamment les cas des étudiants handicapés et des migrants. L’analyse couvre la plupart des pays de l’OCDE et est illustrée par les exemples spécifiques de la Corée, de la France, des États-Unis et du Japon.Ce volume est le premier de la série L’enseignement supérieur à l’horizon 2030 qui analyse de manière prospective l’impact des différentes tendances actuelles sur l’enseignement supérieur. Les deux volumes suivants observeront les effets de la technologie et de la mondialisation, et le quatrième présentera des scénarios sur l’avenir de l’enseignement supérieur.

    Abstract: This book takes a careful look at the concept of sustainable development. What does it mean? How is it affected by production, consumption and globalisation? How it can be measured, and what can be done to promote it? The OECD produces data, research and policy recommendations on many issues related to sustainable development, including climate change, co-operation with developing countries and corporate social responsibility. OECD Insights: Sustainable Development draws on that expertise. It argues that to be sustainable, development has to be based on progress in three areas at once: the economy, society and the environment.

    Keywords: Social Issues/Migration/Health
    Abstract: This paper provides an overview of the present mental health care information systems in 18 OECD countries with the aim to explore the possibilities for measuring the quality of mental health care and identify potential indicators to be included in OECD’s HCQI set. A survey was conducted to support this analysis. The questionnaire sought to gather information on three areas of interest for the description of national information systems linked to mental health services: Types of mental health data available at system level; data sources available at national level; and institutional arrangements framing ownership and use of the information system. An additional section was included to assess potential improvements in availability of the indicators recommended in OECD Health Technical Paper 17, updating the availability survey conducted in 2005.

    Abstract: Pour les donneurs de l'aide au développement, l’objectif de croissance favorable aux pauvres appelle à un changement de comportement, et une action, même renforcée, s’inscrivant dans la continuité du passé n’y suffira pas. L'étude Vers une croissance pro-pauvres, centrée sur la croissance favorable aux pauvres, recense les principaux obstacles à l’instauration d’une telle croissance et propose des politiques et des stratégies pour les surmonter. Les recommandations qui y sont formulées visent à induire un changement de comportement chez les donneurs et à rehausser ainsi l’efficacité de la coopération pour le développement. Dans cet ouvrage, une attention particulière est prêtée au rôle du développement du secteur privé, de l’agriculture et des infrastructures vers une croissance favorable aux pauvres. Ces divers domaines, que de nombreux donneurs ont négligés dans les années 90, suscitent aujourd’hui un regain d’intérêt dans le cadre du programme d’action international pour le développement. Il expose aussi une méthodologie pour la conduite d’appréciations préalables de l’impact sur la pauvreté, outil qui se révélera précieux pour tous ceux qui souhaitent optimiser l’effet des actions de développement en matière de réduction de la pauvreté.
