Estar al otro lado de la mesa. Profesionales de los servicios públicos de empleo ante los dilemas de la activación laboral
2019
Under the paradigm of activation, the Public Employment Services has been reshaped by two levels of contractualization. On one hand, the collaboration of the administration with a network of agents on the programme scheme that make up the active policies of employment. On the other hand, the unemployed person?s access to a compartmentalized offer of services and individually taking responsibility for finding work. This double contractualization reveals redefinition of lowering public responsibility faced with the problem of unemployment that this activation supposes. This paper analyses how this redesign has an impact on how professionals serve the unemployed population. This lays bare, in …
Transformations in Lifelong Guidance Provision
2012
In this chapter, the transformations taking place at the different levels of guidance provision are analyzed. The aim was to provide a tool to examine the interface between multisectoral guidance practice and policy development. On the basis of earlier research on regional guidance networks, a model is introduced in which schools, social, health, and public employment services can jointly design, implement, and evaluate guidance services. The model for Networked Guidance Service Provision (NEGSEP) focuses separately on the developmental needs of guidance services visible to clients, both with regard to service delivery and strategic dimensions. Along this line, a framework for networked gui…

AbstractThis study presents a comprehensive analysis of advantages and disadvantages of different business models for public employment services (hereafter - PES) aiming to determine the model most suitable for the Latvian labour markets.The study identifies strengths and weaknesses of performance monitoring systems applied by Latvian, Estonian and Danish PES, especially in the area of the implementation of active labour market policies and suggests a set of indicators which may be used for evaluation of PES influence on the performance of the labour market in light of the EU growth strategy “Europe 2020”.The study starts with a review of the theoretical and empirical literature on the impa…
Le politiche del lavoro e i servizi per l'impiego: eredità passate e opportunità di innovazione
2017
Il programma europeo della Garanzia Giovani rivolto ai giovani Neet rappresenta una potenziale opportunità di innovazione delle politiche attive del lavoro. Tuttavia, la sua attuazione in Italia è stata accolta con molta preoccupazione in ragione dello stato dei servizi pubblici per l’impiego, che nelle regioni del sud non sono mai riusciti ad abbandonare la logica burocratico-certificatoria del vecchio collocamento. Questo lavoro presenta i dati di una ricerca svolta in Sicilia, una fra le regioni italiane più problematiche, con riferimento sia alle condizioni del mercato del lavoro, sia ai rendimenti istituzionali in materia di politiche per il lavoro. Nonostante le premesse tutt’altro ch…
Unemployment and the Earnings Structure in Latvia
2005
Latvia has recorded sustained GDP and productivity growth since 1997. Yet unemployment rates, despite gradual decrease, have remained high. The paper explores the mysteries of unemployment in Latvia. It analyzes labor flows between employment, unemployment, and nonparticipation and finds the following results: The type of education and the region of residence appear to be the most important determinants of success in finding jobs by the unemployed. The unemployed from ethnic minorities have lower chances to find a job within a year, other things equal, while the difference between genders is not significant. However, neither ethnicity nor gender seems to matter as far as the transition from…
Spatial mismatch through local public employment agencies Answers from a French quasi-experiment Spatial Mismatch through Local Public Employment Age…
2015
Using the unanticipated creation of a new agency in the French region of Lyon as a quasi-natural experiment, we question whether distance to local public employment agencies (LPEAs) is a new channel for spatial mismatch. Contrary to past evidence based on aggregated data and consistently with the spatial mismatch literature, we find no evidence of a worker/agency spatial mismatch, which pleads for a resizing of the French LPEA network. However, echoing with the literature on the institutional determinants of the local public employment agencies' efficiency, we do find detrimental institutional transitory effects.
