A report outlining how EU job-creation initiatives can complement national strategies for employment generation

Date: 04/06/1998

was published by the European Commission this week. The document, which follows up on a similar report ahead of last November's special EU jobs summit, stresses how Union-backed projects in the fields of research, training and infrastructure development can help create employment. It will be presented to this month's Cardiff summit, along with the Commission's initial assessment of member states' national action plans for employment.
