Synopsis

Work is both an essential part of our daily lives and one of the major policy concerns across Europe. In this second volume of The Future of Labour in Europe , the authors explain in accessible language the findings of the NEUJOBS project on the job prospects of key industries and groups of people. They use three colors - green, pink, and silver - to pinpoint areas with the largest challenges as well as the greatest potential. The conclusions are addressed to policymakers, the business world, journalists, fellow academics, and anyone interested in the shape, size, and character of the labor markets of tomorrow.

" "Green, Pink and Silver?" provides an illuminating look into the future of employment in Europe in the face of important trends, such as the demographic transition. It identifies opportunities to promote increased and more productive employment across a variety of key sectors, for example, energy and care services, paying special attention to those who are often left behind, like the Roma."--Mamta Murthi, Country Director for Central Europe and the Baltic Countries, World Bank
