CEPS Unit

Jobs and Skills

“The outstanding faults of the economic society in which we live are its failure to provide for full employment and its arbitrary and inequitable distribution of wealth and incomes.” - John Maynard Keynes

The Jobs & Skills Unit performs research on labour markets, education and social policy topics, to examine the impact of the main societal transitions – social, ecological, technological, demographic, skills-related and geographical – in the EU.
