EUROPEAN LABOR MOBILITY SUPPORT

Description

Most European labour markets are characterised by a coexistence of persistent high levels of unemployment in many areas and bottleneck vacancies in high - growing regions or sectors. Structural mismatches between labour supply and demand are common. Labour mobility across Europe is too low compared to the overall size of the EU labour markets and corresponding active populations, which has the effect of hindering adjustments in the allocation of resources that could support economic and employment growth. Deepening European labour market integration and ensuring effective matching between labour demand and supply is crucial in order to enable all employment opportunities to be exploited. In this respect, mobility not only means going to where the jobs are, or having access to better jobs; it is also associated with improvements in generic and occupational skills and increases adaptability and employability. The aim of the project was to increase the transnational employability by shaping and developing the system supporting the transnational labour mobility and adaptability of employees/workers/individuals in foreign/international environment with the active participation of companies, stakeholders and training providers. The objectives of the project were: - Improving the transnational adaptability of the workforces - Enhancing the competitiveness of small and medium-sized enterprises, through promoting the adaptability of enterprises and workers - Increasing the availability of professional transnational career guidance - Improving the capacity of counsellors and employment & recruitment agencies. The target groups of the project were:1) direct target group: employees working in foreign environment, individuals interested in transnational labour mobility, counsellors, partner organisations and their staff;2) indirect target group: companies and their HR departments, target organisations: VET organisations and institutions, training providers, trainers/consultants of the target organisations; public and private labour actors (employer associations, labour offices, employment agencies).The partnership consisted of 5 organizations from 5 EU countries of different organisations and institutions (NGOs, SMEs, employment agencies). The project partners already knew each other on an institutional & personal level from previous EU partnerships. Each partner coordinated the elaboration of at least one major task, (intellectual outputs, dissemination & exploitation process, quality & evaluation process) reflecting organisational competencies and expertise. Each partner ensured that the project products were provided in their national language & they were responsible for promoting national integration. The partners had capacity, knowledge and competencies to bring in this project and were active in the field of project management, trainings & consulting. During the project implementation four main intellectual outputs were developed:1) Regional Research Analysis Report developed to identify and analyse the national needs in the field of transnational labour mobility and adaptability of employees/workers/individuals in foreign environment and to assist to the development of project outputs and that suitable levels of stakeholder & user engagement were achieved throughout the project (including during end-user validation) in the partner countries2) Model of working with people interested in transnational labour mobility/ support scheme before the mobility and assistance in adaptation in foreign workplace - from the stage of intention to the adaptation in a foreign country. The model is a guide/scheme for those working with these people on the basis of the developed outputs (O3-O4)3) ICT Tool for assessment of capability and readiness for transnational labour mobility/TLM – the ICT tool measures and diagnoses the individual readiness for TLM, providing with accurate information about the areas needed to be developed and improved. The ICT tool can be used by trainers and counsellors in their daily work4) Programme Toolkit - MOBILITY programme aims at the preparation of individuals (employees and unemployed) for TLM & ADAPT - Training programme and materials, guidance for employers focused on how to adapt a foreign employee in new environment, how to conduct group coaching activities and other group and individual activities aiming to enhance the adaptation of individuals/new employees from other countries in foreign environment - workplace, country, culture, etc.LAMOS EU project had a significant impact on the target groups since it enhanced the adaptability of individuals interested in TLM and it improved the capacity of companies in facilitating the adaptation of new employees (foreigners) in their company. It also improved the availability of tools and methods for both counsellors, companies and VET institutions for improving and enhancing transnational labour mobility in Europe.
