In the increasingly globalised world markets, it is becoming difficult for European businesses to remain competitive.
Internally, European industry is undergoing a period of intensive reconstruction with jobs being lost and manufacturing units shutting down. Certain regions and certain industrial sectors have seen radical changes to their employment model. The fact that economic growth in the EU remains below 2% is a further factor in this gloomy scenario.
For the EU to continue to be an area of economic, social and environmental progress, the Member States must implement reforms in their labour markets with the aim of improving workers’ employability and of making work pay. The reform of these social and fiscal policies must be approached in a coherent way, as prerequisites for sustainable development and growth.
Against this backdrop, the reform of the internal market, including the area of the freedom to provide cross-border services, will make it possible to achieve the economic growth that the EU requires if it is to generate more than 70% of the world’s wealth and jobs."@en1
