Abstract

Die veränderte Arbeitswelt erfordert eine erhöhte Arbeitsmarktflexibilität. Auf Seiten der Arbeitskräftenachfrage steigt die Wettbewerbsintensität durch Globalisierung und raschen technischen Fortschritt, auf Seiten des Arbeitkräfteangebotes der privaten Haushalte durch den Prozess der Individualisierung und neue, flexiblere Formen des Zusammenlebens. Die Institutionen des Arbeitsmarktes und der sozialen Sicherung an diese Anforderungen anzupassen, um in Zeiten raschen Wandels die Prinzipien von Effizienz und Solidarität in Einklang zu bringen, bildet den Kern der europäischen Beschäftigungsstrategie. Dieses "Flexicurity"-Konzept soll Arbeitsmarktflexibilität und soziale Sicherheit verknüpfen und die Sozialpolitik als "produktiven Faktor" etablieren.
