"This non-legislative report is brimming with fine things and statements of the obvious. Of course, more women must be able to find work in knowledge-intensive sectors, such as information and communication technology. In addition, it sounds good that a ‘Statute for European Employees’ should be drafted, a European system of labour legislation and social security for mobile employees. This fits in with the questions I am asking the Commission today about the Polish construction workers who work without collective labour agreements. However, the gist of the proposal is about adapting people to suit the work, rather than adapting the work to suit the people. It provides recipes for the way in which a labour market can function more effectively by better tailoring education to work. It intends to make it easier for people to move thousands of kilometres to regions with a different language and a different culture, where the scope for employment happens to be greater. If people really want to move, it is self-evidently a good thing that their qualifications should be valid even far away from home and that they should be able to take their pension rights with them. Most people, however, do not want this, with good reason. Europe is not America, where, out of financial necessity, people are forced to move such distances, which cuts them off from their families and friends. Let things stay that way."@en1
