The NEUJOBS FP7 dissemination partners are happy to invite you to the launch of the book 'Let's get to Work! The Future of Labour in Europe', which will take place on Monday 8th September 2014 at CEPS in Brussels.

Keynote speakers Miroslav Beblavy (CEPS), Gunther Schmid (WZB Berlin) and Tom Bevers (Employment Committee) will address the most striking research findings that were brought together in the context of the NEUJOBS FP7 project. The panel, facilitated by Terry Martin (journalist & communications advisor), will engage in a discussion with the audience about the implications of the findings for the future of labour in Europe.

Work is not only an essential part of our daily lives, but also one of the top policy concerns across Europe. Unfortunately, the public debate of labour issues is all too often driven by political rhetoric and short-term concerns. In the context of the NEUJOBS FP7 project, scholars from seven European countries bring together in an edited volume what the research findings from various social sciences mean for the future of labour in Europe. Their findings, written down in an easily accessible language, are addressed not only to policymakers, business persons, fellow academics and journalists, but to anyone interested in the shape, size and character of the labour markets of tomorrow and beyond.
