In response to a survey jointly carried out between April and May 2020 by WAPES, in partnership with the International Labour Organisation, the Inter-American Development Bank and SOCIEUX+, among 80 public employment services (PES) on all continents, more than 82% of the participants reported national measures to foster telework. This increase, which has had short-term effects, forcing organisations to make rapid or even improvised adjustments, has led to the active implementation of telework on a large scale. This flexibility has largely contributed to maintaining the essential activities of public employment services in periods of confinement. Today, questions are being raised about the future of telework, its impact on organisations, management methods, but also more generally on the evolution of skills, professions and the labour market (including the Gig economy).Purpose of our webinarOur objective is to share our knowledge about the reality of telework today and to learn from our experiences during the pandemic and look to the future, to : identify the most appropriate scenarios adapted to each organisational reality (sustainability or […]

The average OECD unemployment rate is estimated to reach 9.4% in the fourth quarter of 2020 if there is no second wave of the virus, up from 5.3% at the end of 2019. In the case of a second outbreak, it could reach 12.6%. A second wave could hit businesses and households even harder, as many are still recovering from the first wave. And the recovery will not be rapid, with unemployment remaining at 7.7% at the end of 2021, or 8.9% if there is a second wave. Employment services are playing an important role in keeping labour markets functioning during COVID-19. To fulfil this challenging role, they need to be agile, quickly adapt to the new situation and adjust their response frequently and flexibly to respond to unpredictable developments. Many local employment services are facing an unparalleled inflow of new jobseekers, but cannot meet with their clients in person due to confinement restrictions. At the same time, the number […]
