The economic crisis which we have been experiencing since 2008 has caused the loss of 5.6 million jobs, and currently 9.5% of the active population in Europe is unemployed, with undoubted negative repercussions on growth and welfare in the Member States.
The Agenda for New Skills and Jobs forms part of the Europe 2020 strategy in order to help achieve a 75% employment rate for the 20-64 age group. The difficulties still faced by workers and SMEs are worrying. However, the Union has the capacity to meet this challenge and increase the employment rate, but we need practical measures and a coordinated response by the Member States in order to stimulate sustainable growth.
We need to promote market flexibility and security, as well as invest in closer integration between education, training and work, by, on the one hand, preventing early school leaving and encouraging vocational training, and, on the other, creating measures targeted at young people with a view to their integration on the labour market even before they have finished formal education."@en1
