24/06/2011 Session
PACE today urged member states to adjust public policies so as to fully implement the labour-related provisions of the revised European Social Charter and give priority to reducing youth unemployment.
The adopted text, based on the report by Marija Pejnovic-Buric (Croatie, EPP/CD), underlines that governments should promote better qualifications and skills, more mobility and inter-generational solidarity, improved access to job offers and apprenticeship schemes, as well as a greater interaction between employers, state employment agencies and young jobseekers.
