Cerca de 190 millones de personas en el mundo viven fuera de su país natal. Estos migrantes aportan energía, espíritu empresarial e ideas frescas a nuestras sociedades. Pero el asunto tiene desventajas: jóvenes migrantes que fracasan en el ámbito educativo, adultos que no encuentran empleo y, por supuesto, la migración irregular. Estos retos pueden hacer que la migración se convierta en un pararrayos político y en tema de un acalorado debate. A partir de los conocimientos especializados de la OCDE, singulares en este terreno, en la presente obra se avanza más allá de la retórica para analizar las realidades de la migración internacional en nuestros días: ¿de dónde provienen y a dónde van los migrantes?, ¿cómo gestionan la migración los gobiernos?, ¿cuán bueno es el desempeño de los
migrantes en la educación y en la fuerza de trabajo? y ¿ayuda —u obstaculiza— la migración a los países en desarrollo?

Tackling mental ill-health of the working-age population is becoming a key issue for labour market and social policies in OECD countries. OECD governments increasingly recognise that policy has a major role to play in keeping people with mental ill-health in employment or bringing those outside of the labour market back to it, and in preventing mental illness. This report on Switzerland is the fifth in a series of reports looking at how the broader education, health, social and labour market policy challenges identified in Sick on the Job? Myths and Realities about Mental Health and Work (OECD, 2012) are being tackled in a number of OECD countries. It concludes that the Swiss system is well resourced to address the challenges in various policy fields; that due the involvemnet of a large number of stakeholders much needed policy coordination across different sectors is a difficult task; and that a stronger mental health focus is required in Switzerland's health, social and labour market policies.

Etwa jeder dritte unter den Bürgern, die in der Schweiz Arbeitslosenentschädigung, Leistungen aus der Invalidenversicherung oder Sozialhilfe beziehen, leidet an einer psychischen Störung. Zudem gibt es unter psychisch Kranken mehr als doppelt so viele Arbeitslose wie in der Gesamtbevölkerung. Der neue OECD-Bericht ist Teil einer Länderserie, die untersucht, wie verschiedene Staaten in ihrer Gesundheits-, Bildungs- oder Sozialpolitik auf seelische Krankheiten eingehen.

Dans les pays de l’OCDE, la gestion des problèmes de santé mentale dans la population d’âge actif devient un enjeu essentiel pour les politiques sociales et du marché du travail. Les gouvernements de ces pays sont de plus en plus nombreux à reconnaître que les pouvoirs publics ont un rôle important à jouer pour maintenir au travail les personnes souffrant de troubles mentaux ou pour faciliter la réintégration de celles qui sont sorties du marché de l’emploi, ainsi que pour prévenir l’apparition de ce type de troubles. Ce rapport relatif à la Suisse est le cinquième d’une série de travaux analysant l’approche adoptée par différents pays de l’OCDE face aux défis plus larges, décrits dans la publication Mal-être au travail ? Mythes et réalités sur la santé mentale et l’emploi (OCDE, 2012), auxquels sont confrontés les pouvoirs publics en matière d’éducation, de santé, de politique sociale et d’emploi.

Employment and Skills Strategies in Australia focuses on the role of local employment and training agencies in contributing to job creation and productivity. It looks at the role of Local Employment Coordinators, introduced by the Department of Employment to work in 20 "priority employment areas" which were identified as needing extra assistance following the global financial crisis. This report is part of a comparative OECD review of local job creation policies, which explores how countries are putting measures in place at the local level to stimulate quality employment, social inclusion and growth.

As competências se transformaram na moeda global do século 21. Sem investimento adequado em competências,
as pessoas permanecem à margem da sociedade, o progresso tecnológico não se traduz em crescimento econômico
e os países não podem competir em uma sociedade mundial que se baseia cada vez mais no conhecimento. Mas
essa “moeda” perde valor à medida que evoluem as exigências dos mercados de trabalho e as pessoas perdem as
competências que não utilizam.
A crise econômica mundial, com elevados níveis de desemprego, especialmente entre os jovens, torna urgente fomentar
melhores competências. Ao mesmo tempo se deve levar em consideração a desigualdade da renda, causada em grande
medida pela desigualdade entre os salários que remuneram a mão de obra de alta capacitação e os pagos às pessoas
com baixa capacitação. A solução mais promissora para esses problemas é investir eficazmente nas competências no
decorrer do ciclo de vida: desde a primeira infância, durante a educação obrigatória e ao longo da vida profissional.
A Estratégia de Competências da OCDE proporciona um marco estratégico integrado no âmbito governamental para
ajudar os países a entender melhor como investir nas competências para transformar vidas e fomentar economias.
Ajudará os países a identificar os pontos fortes e fracos de suas reservas nacionais de competências e sistemas de
competências, a compará-los no âmbito internacional e a desenvolver políticas de melhoria. Em particular, a estratégia
estabelece as bases sobre as quais os governos podem trabalhar de maneira eficaz com todas as partes interessadas –
governos nacionais, regionais e locais, empregadores, trabalhadores e estudantes.

This report delivers evidence-based and practical recommendations on how to better support employment and economic development in Canada. It builds on sub-national data analysis and consultations with local stakeholders in four case study areas across Ontario and Quebec. It provides a comparative framework to understand the role of the local level in contributing to more and better quality jobs. The report can help federal, provincial, local policy makers in Canada build effective and sustainable partnerships at the local level, which join-up efforts and achieve stronger outcomes across employment, training, and economic development policies. Co-ordinated policies can help workers find suitable jobs, while also stimulating entrepreneurship and productivity, which increases the quality of life and prosperity within a community as well as throughout the country.

Ce rapport se fonde sur l’analyse de données infranationales et sur la consultation de parties prenantes locales dans quatre régions d’étude et deux provinces. Il établit un cadre de comparaison permettant d’appréhender le rôle de l’échelon local en faveur d’emplois plus nombreux et de meilleure qualité. Il pourra aider les responsables des politiques fédérales, provinciales et locales au Canada à bâtir au niveau local des partenariats efficaces et pérennes, porteurs de synergies et de résultats plus solides du point de vue des mesures prises pour l’emploi, la formation et le développement économique. Des politiques coordonnées peuvent aider les travailleurs à trouver l’emploi qui leur convient tout en stimulant l’entrepreneuriat et la productivité, et aboutir ainsi à une meilleure qualité de vie et à plus de prospérité aussi bien au niveau local que, globalement, dans le pays.
