Designing Public Employment Programmes

International Training Centre of the ILO (ITC-ILO)
What is it?

Public employment programmes (PEPs) provide an adaptive policy instrument that can create employment, fill gaps in the provision of assets or services, complement social protection provisions and contribute to active labour market policies (ALMPs).

This course will discuss policy and design features of PEPs that take into account these challenges and will share experiences on how these programme have been used to respond to different types of crises and periods of reduced demand for labour.

This will include experiences from both high, middle and low-income countries. The course will provide tools for enabling effective programme design, to achieve the multiple objectives.
