Abstract
Although education and work arrangements did not cause the economic down turn we are currently experiencing, policy in these areas will be pivotal in the recovery plan.
Initiatives directed at economic renewal can simultaneously address deep seated education and labour problems. Prime among these are deteriorating job quality, imbalances represented by both ‘under education’ and ‘wasted skills’, as well as retarded productivity growth. (From Executive Summary)
