Overview

This review looks at a range of institutions and bodies involved in employment and skills policies in the Czech Republic, focusing on local strategies on the asta nad Labem and South Moravian regions. Compared to other OECD countries, the Czech Republic emerged relatively strong from the global financial crisis but growth remains fragile. Long-term unemployment is persistently higher than the EU average and productivity remains weak affecting overall competitiveness. Creating quality jobs and skills is an important priority to continue growing the economy. As articulated in the National Reform Programme, the government is focused on maintaining stability, increasing national competitiveness, and driving up employment. The OECD Local Economic and Employment Development Programme (LEED) has developed an international comparative project to examine the capacity of local employment servicesand training providers to contribute to a long-term strategy which strengthens the resiliency of the local economy, increases skills levels and job quality.
