UNDP helps strengthening İŞKUR and increasing access to decent jobs
January 31, 2022
Launched in 2017, the initiative engaged in improvement work in three areas; process improvement of İŞKUR, physical improvement of service centres, and upgrading of İŞKUR’s software infrastructure to facilitate user experience along with the introduction of new-age service facilities like Mobile Bus.
(...) Various training courses were organized for İŞKUR staff; the “Training of Trainers” delivered to 52 staff members of İŞKUR addressed the role of trainers, communication, and presentation skills. To improve İŞKUR’s Job Clubs, which is an intensive job and vocational counseling programme aiming to provide technical and motivational support to groups that require special attention, hardware and software support was provided along with a translation of the materials into Arabic. (...) To facilitate access to the labour markets, 950 Syrians benefitted from the training “Job Search Skills Improvement Programme”, which involves job profiling and CV drafting techniques.

Training Policy Brief
How effective were the EU’s economic adjustment programmes in improving job quality in Greece?
This brief shows that Greece’s economic adjustment programmes (EAP) have been detrimental to job quality. Against this background, it proposes five policy measures that could improve employment conditions. Given the potential positive effects of job quality to macro-financial stability, such measures could also improve the country’s socio- economic performance over the post-adjustment period.

The Project is designed to improve labour market efficiency and participation, reduce unemployment, and enhance linkages and information flows between job seekers and employers, which will in turn contribute to the reduction of poverty in Cambodia and Lao People’s Democratic Republic.
(...) Regardless of the economic situation, globalization and technological progress rapidly change the skills needs of enterprises, and thus put pressure on enter- prises to find qualified workers and the workforce to find jobs. Improving the quality of employment services through strengthened client orientation and capacity building of job centres and their officials, and improving the quality and analysis of labour market information will be the core components of this Project. (...) Improve the data collection, analysis and dissemina- tion to allow for better job matching of the jobseekers who are looking for jobs with enterprises who need workers to fill their job vacancies, and to provide tailor-made labour market programmes to specific groups (i.e. women, migrant workers and people with disabilities.
• Develop and design a computer-based system on job-seekers, vacancies and job placements which includes training on computer literacy and database management.
• Design mechanisms to ensure better outreach of database and information to users.
• Design of labour market programmes that would be adapted to match the needs and contexts of specific groups, for example, organization of vocational training programmes for women job-seekers and people with disabilities in rural areas.
