New skills for new jobs: anticipating and matching labour market and skills needs: working document

This staff working paper accompanies the Communication on 'New skills for new jobs' (indexed at TD/TNC 94.25). It presents the empirical and theoretical evidence upon which the policy messages of the Communication are based. Section one introduces the paper and offers the rationale behind it. Section two provides a first assessment of the skills and labour market needs of the European Union (EU) up to 2020 and identifies the possible risks of mismatches between supply and demand. This first analysis needs to be followed by continuous efforts to anticipate and match future skills and labour market needs. Section three evaluates existing practices at national and international levels.
