P&MS
Committee Meeting, 14-15 September 2005, Luxembourg 16.09
Meeting in Luxembourg, the UNI Europa P&MS Committee, chaired by
Jean-Paul Bouchet from France, reviewed the EU policy for lifelong
learning. "In terms of higher skills and lifelong learning, Europe
by large lags far behind other high performing economies.",
Jean-Paul said. The Committee was rather sceptical that the European
Qualification Framework, submitted for consultation by the EU
Commission, will bring any improvements. It is by far too vague and too
complex as to guide individuals in their endeavour to maintain
employability. The Committee also exchanged experience on organising
P&MS in different sectors. It was said that collective bargaining is
still the most important tool, followed by individual services to
attract and retain skilled professionals. With respect to demographic
changes the Committee decided to develop a strategy to increase the
participation rate in the active labour force of older professionals and
managers.

appreciated.

Companies 'fail to support'
employees abroad (FT, 18 June '02)
Employees on international assignment feel their companies are not
doing enough to support them abroad. The Financial Times reports that
expatriates surveyed complained that they would not be sufficiently
informed about adverse health and safety conditions and how to cope
with them. A high percentage of expatriates leave their companies when
they return.
