"Almost 10% of Europeans are unemployed at present. The economic and financial crisis that began in 2008 has only exacerbated the situation. Although the Europe 2020 strategy includes a target employment rate of 75% for the 20-64 age group by 2020, we must acknowledge that we are facing a growing number of challenges as we seek to maintain our social model. Training for workers and the labour market need to adapt to this tough new economic reality. I am pleased to see that is the thrust of the measures proposed in Ms Bastos’s report. We now need to make real headway with support for education and further training, on protecting workers’ social rights throughout their working life, investing massively in research and innovation in order to create jobs for the future, and on improving working conditions. Ambitious policies are needed to reconcile workers’ expectations and the needs of the labour market, not least through the creation of European Sector Councils on employment and skills, as proposed in this perceptive report."@en1
