Abstract

"The discussion contributions for the workshop 'Strategies for more employment - international experiences' were judged differently by the representatives of trade unions, employers and central and local government who participated. There was some consensus, or at least partial agreement, as to the feasibility and possibility of applying the experiences gathered there to Germany. With certain subjects (such as that of wage differentiation), however, problems came to light that were accentuated differently during the discussion. This summary of the event attempts to make clear these approving and critical assessments. Taking up one or other of the discussion contributions, some further considerations concerning future prospects are mentioned." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))
