Employment and Skills Strategies in Southeast Asia, OECD report The Southeast Asian region has experienced some of the highest growth rates in the world, with investments in skills playing a significant role in helping national economies to adjust to changes in working practices, advances in technology, and challenges associated with globalisation. In some countries this process has been more successfully managed and significant advances have been achieved in growth rates and employment levels, but in others it has resulted in stagnation of economic sectors, underemployment, rising unemployment levels and social exclusion for large sections of society. The tools that are available for governments to manage change must be capable of responding to the new opportunities posed by globalisation, yet at the same time address domestic challenges associated with demographic shifts in population, increased urbanisation and the informalisation of labour markets. The present report explores these complex issues and identifies the main constraints facing employment growth in the region, and through an analysis of existing strategies identifies which have been the most successful at generating sustainable employment.
