Concept for Reforming the National Employment Agency Discussed with Media Representatives at a Press Club

The aim was to discuss with journalists the policies and mechanisms needed to improve ANOFM services in 2023-2026, so as to address imbalances between labour supply and demand and strengthen the institution's public profile.

Participants also debated the Government's vision for building ANOFM's institutional capacity, making funding more efficient, digitalising services and employment measures, and increasing funding for active measures by 2026, taking into account Moldova's EU candidate status. The reform is a priority in the Government's programme “Prosperous, Secure, European Moldova”, approved by Parliament Decision No. 28 of 16 February 2023. It envisages promoting employment of inactive people, registered unemployed and people with disabilities, introducing vocational training vouchers, and increasing and simplifying investment in employment programmes.
