Global job markets are changing rapidly, driven by increased automation, new technology and demographic change among other factors. And over the past year, the COVID-19 pandemic has injected new uncertainty into this changing labour market. What are some of the medium- to long-term solutions to meeting these challenges?

To address these trends and the policy response, the ILO Employment Policy Department has recently launched a new Global Employment Policy Review: Employment Policies for Inclusive Structural Transformation. Interview with Sangheon Lee, Director of the Employment Policy Department, and the co-editors of the report, Dorothea Schmidt-Klau and David Kucera.
