How do employers regard the unemployed jobseeker? Do they treat unemployed applicants any differently from the employed ones? As the duration of unemployment rises, do long-term unemployed applicants face extra barriers to landing a job? This research answers these questions by evaluating employers' attitudes towards, recruitment of, and rejection of, unemployed jobseekers. It is concerned with both the long-term unemployed and unemployed people in general. It draws on a representative sample of 800 UK employers, investigated by telephone survey abd face-to-face interview.

This report by the Employment Sub-committee focuses on the means by which the Government, the Employment Service and employers can help unemployed people into jobs and jobs that match their abilities and aspirations, and by doing so, extend the range of talents available to employers. The inquiry also wished to determine whether the demand-led approaches to labour market intermediation which have developed in the United States and are being championed by the Government could help to improve the employment prospects of unemployed people and improve their chances of retaining a job once in employment. The report concludes that there are still significant barriers to the recruitment of unemployed people. The most significant are indirectly discriminatory recruitment practices on the part of employers and inadequate skill levels among the unemployed. Progress has been made by the Employment Service in shifting its culture towards becoming a demand-led organisation but more needs to be done especially with regard to the development of a consistently high quality, complete service to employers. The Government needs to become more proactive in the dissemination of best practice around the UK to complement the importation of best practice from abroad. The Employment Service should not become exclusively employer-oriented. It must continue to accord high priority to helping those who are most disadvantaged into work. A number of recommendations are made in the report including a national survey of employer's recruitment practices, improving the links between employers and the long term unemployed, expanding opportunities for work placements and trials for unemployed people and reducing the period for which unemployed people over the age of 25 are required to claim job seeker's allowance before entering New Deal.

Given the labor market challenges that countries in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region are facing (notably high unemployment, prevalence of skills mismatches, low labor market mobility, and lack of formal employment networks), employment services could be a relevant policy instrument to assist unemployed individuals to find jobs. Despite high and increasing unemployment rates, employers in the region are facing difficulties to find workers whose competences and skills fit their employment needs. The study first surveys international best practices for the delivery of employment services and then reviews the provision of these services in a selected group of countries in the MENA region, with a focus on public provision through existing public employment agencies. Findings indicate public agencies in the region face many challenges for the effective delivery of employment programs, namely poor administrative capacity,system fragmentation, lack of governance and accountability, regulation bottlenecks, and flaws in program design. In order to help unemployed workers to obtain the competences required by available jobs, this study proposes a reform agenda based on the development of strong partnerships between public agencies, public providers, and employers for the design and implementation of flexible employment programs that respond to real employment needs. These partnershipss will need to be developed with strong governance mechanisms that make beneficiaries, private providers, and firms accountable for making sure that investments in employment programs lead to employment insertion. The book is directed to policy makers, practitioners, economists, and anyone interested in international best practices to promote a more effective delivery of employment services.
