No future of work without social innovation
Futureproof labour markets must embed social innovation, writes Denis Pennel.
Falling youth unemployment is not a reason for complacency
Europe needs to better integrate young people into the labour market if it is to address youth unemployment effectively, writes Denis Pennel.
We need to nurture the biodiversity of the labour market
Europe faces a work revolution. To survive, we need to heed the words of Charles Darwin and adapt and adjust to fit our changing environment, writes Denis Pennel.
In a new world of work, more of the same is not an option
With non-traditional employment contracts now the new norm I believe it is time to take a fresh approach to the working models of the future, writes Denis Pennel.
How the gig economy is changing employment
The advent of the gig economy has brought fundamental changes to the way in which we access goods and services and turned traditional business models on their head. Denis Pennel considers its impact on employment and the likely implications for the future of work.
A new world of work, a new way of looking at it
A new white paper by the representative of Europe’s employment industry addresses the main issues surrounding the new world of work and calls on policymakers to adapt legislation and labour market policies in line with this new reality. Denis Pennel explains how things stand.
The future of work is beginning to look increasingly like the past
With the rise of the virtual economy, the new ways of working need to be recognised and regulated so that workers are afforded appropriate rights and social protection, writes Denis Pennel.
The ‘uberisation’ of the workplace is a new revolution
Think Uber, Spotify, Netflix and Airbnb. New ‘Uber-like’ business models are now being embraced in the field of employment too, writes Denis Pennel.
