The Independent Think Tank “Expert-Grup” has published a policy brief on European labour market norms and regulations and their relevance for the Republic of Moldova. It was prepared under the project “Civil Society for European Integration”, funded by the European Union and co-funded by Friedrich Ebert Stiftung Moldova.

The first part of the brief reviews the EU's normative and regulatory framework on employment, including the main milestones achieved in stages. It also outlines the EU's strategic and institutional framework and the concrete actions needed for a fair, equitable and functional labour market. Creating more adequate, sectorally targeted jobs is presented as one of the main objectives of EU employment policy.

The second part focuses on the general characteristics of Moldova's labour market, including its strategic and institutional framework for operationalisation. It concludes with suggestions and recommendations applicable to the local market. The project is implemented with the Institute for European Policies and Reforms (IPRE), Institutum Virtutes Civilis (IVC) and Friedrich Ebert Stiftung Moldova.
