"I voted in favour of this report because it is a really comprehensive and well balanced document, presenting to the European Commission the European Parliament’s opinion on the Agenda for New Skills and Jobs proposed by the Commission. I am especially pleased that the document devotes equal attention to employment issues affecting all age groups, in other words, that we are finally discussing not only the issue of youth unemployment, but also paying attention to unemployment among older people. We really cannot ignore issues faced by any group of people of working age, particularly when many Member States are raising the retirement age of their workers. As far as unemployment among young and older people is concerned, we must find means of promoting solidarity between these generations, rather than confrontation. I am also pleased that in many places the report stresses that employers must cooperate more closely with educational and professional training establishments so that in future we prepare precisely those specialists that the labour market needs most, and to that end also carry out more detailed research of the labour market. The measures proposed by the report to help workers balance work and personal life are equally important."@en1
