From Job Security to Employment Security on the Belgian labour Market. Ideas for a New Deal for Labour in Belgium

Where is our labour market going in the 21st century? How do we handle ageing and globalisation successfully? Can we finally push back mass unemployment? Can we combine more flexibility with more security? Can we make older people work more? Can we finally include foreigners in the labour force? This book provides new ideas to adjust the organisation of the Belgian labour market to a new era. It calls for broad and deep reforms for the long term, beyond the convulsive short-term reflex of acquired rights.
