The OSE in collaboration with three partners – the Public Policy and Management Institute (PPMI, lead partner), RAND Europe and Kooperationsstelle Hamburg (KOOP) – was awarded a new Framework contract with the European Commission. The purpose of the multiple framework contracts is to assist the European Commission in implementing the Better Regulation Guidelines in its activities. More specifically, these are services supporting DG EMPL on impact assessment, evaluation and monitoring in the areas of employment, social affairs, labour mobility and skills.
Access to the labour market
The European Social Observatory is part of the four year NEUJOBS Project, funded by the European Commission (FP7). The main objective will be to highlight the opportunities and difficulties that result from the socio-economic and ecological transitions of the labour market. In order to include all stakeholders’ positions in the study, social partners will be actively involved. Results should allow decision makers to take the most appropriate social and economic measures and avoid/reduce negative impacts on some groups of workers (older workers, migrants, Roma, etc.).
