EU: temporary social partners adopt work program 2011-2012

Competences.  Regarding European labor market policies, the social partners want to work on a joint contribution to the Europe 2020 Strategy – the new European strategy for growth and employment.  In 2007, Uni-Europa and Eurociett already signed a joint declaration on flexicurity.  Among other commitments, the temporary agencies affiliated with the employers’ organization committed to not enter into competition that could be detrimental to the sector’s working conditions.  By the end of 2011, the social partners should agree on a new declaration which will be part of the “New Skills for New Jobs” European initiative.  Launched by the EU in 2008, this initiative aims to analyze the skills needs of the European market to better adjust staff supply and demand in Europe.
