| Summary: | This report is a joint study between the
European Commission (EC), the World Bank, and the
Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development
(OECD). It aims to inform employment support, activation,
and social inclusion policy making, through an improved
understanding of labor-market barriers. Covering 12
countries, the study builds on the previous joint EC and
World Bank study to map the diversity of profiles of
individuals who are out of work in six countries (Sundaram
et al., 2014) and other analyses that characterize
individuals with labor market difficulties (European
Commission, 2012; Ferré et al., 2013; Immervoll, 2013). The
study expands the previous analysis by looking at a broader
group of labor market vulnerable beyond the out of work
individuals to include: those in unstable employment, those
with restricted hours, and those with near-zero incomes
(i.e. individuals who are marginally employed). It also
refines the analytical methodology by applying an employment
barriers framework to facilitate policy making and
country-specific application, and to provide a reference
point for future methodological extensions. |
