The Global Employment Policy Review: Inclusive structural transformation, employment policies and innovative solutions for a better future of work

31 March 2021

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.

This podcast is also available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
