How should Public Employment Services respond to coronavirus challenges?
The worldwide COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in much turmoil and insecurity around employment. Even people who previously enjoyed stable jobs have suddenly found themselves scrambling for work, especially in affected sectors like hospitality, retail, and travel. On the flip side, sectors like logistics, healthcare, and manufacturing seek to expand their workforce dramatically, offering new opportunities for jobseekers, but also new challenges for employers.
