Amendment 167 #
Proposal for a decision
Annex – Guideline 7 – paragraph 2
The Member States should step up social dialogue and tackle labour market segmentation with measures addressing temporary and precarious employment, underemployment and undeclared work. Professional mobility should be rewarded. The quality of jobs and employment conditions should be addressed by fighting low-wages and by ensuring adequate social security also for those on fixed contracts and the self-employed. Employment servic, in cooperation with the social partners, should increase the employment rate through activation measures, in particular for the low-skilled and people requiring particular protection and/or support such as the Roma, through advisory services and education and professional training adapted to the labour market's needs. The social economy should be supported in this context. Furthermore, the Member States should increase the employability of legal migrants and Roma among other disadvantaged groups with appropriate programmes. Continued efforts and innovative programmes are also required to reintegrate people with disabilities, and members of minority ethnic communities into the labour market, including through subsidised jobs. Furthermore, the Member States should remove the barriers which make it more difficult for people to enter the labour market for the first time, support the creation of jobs, foster social innovation and increase the quality and effectiveness of job placement services, including public employment services. In particular, working time rules should be more flexible, so as to allow a work process which conforms to the requirements of the compatibility of family and work, and allows a more flexible exit from working life into retirement. External and internal flexicurity strategies to increase flexibility, to be able to react more efficiently to production cycles, should be strengthened and open to all, including young people and those threatened by unemployment with personalised services targeting those furthest away from the labour market. better applied through active labour market policies and adequate social security systems, so that changing jobs does not lead to disproportionate financial costs. These should be accompanied by a clear commitment to actively support job- seeking. New forms of work organisation, such as atypical temporary work, part- time work, teleworking and working from home are used more and more frequently in the working world without being legally controlled. They must not lead to a reduction in individual and collective labour rights and social protection for the people concerned.
