Throughout 2022 and 2023, the #EU #labourmarket showed a high degree of #resilience in the face of weak growth, which is partly explained by firms hoarding labour in the presence of persistent labour shortages. This column presents a new Labour Hoarding Indicator developed by the #EuropeanCommission based on its Joint Harmonised EU Programme of Business and Consumer Surveys. ⭐The new indicator signals elevated levels of labour hoarding in the last two years, posing a downward risk for the EU labour market going forward.

World Economic Forum (WEF) Trade and Labour: Rethinking Policy Tools for Better Labour Outcomes [24 June 2024] https://lnkd.in/g76QbaXE or https://lnkd.in/g2WvdYdj   Supply chains are being reshaped by digital and green transitions and geopolitical shifts. This evolving landscape necessitates rethinking the trade-labour relationship to improve labour standards and foster inclusivity. This white paper, part of the Trade and Labour programme jointly run by the World Economic Forum and the Thinking Ahead on Societal Change (TASC) Platform at Geneva Graduate Institute and funded by the Laudes Foundation, combines extensive desk research and over 50 stakeholder interviews, to examine the trade-labour nexus. It highlights progress and ongoing challenges and emphasizes the critical role of policy tools like multilateral instruments, regional trade agreements and corporate due diligence frameworks in enhancing labour outcomes. As globalization continues to influence job creation and working conditions, this paper stresses the need for fair benefit distribution and social justice. It calls for stronger collaboration between trade and labour communities to harness trade’s potential in creating better labour outcomes amid a rapidly changing global landscape.
