"Dans cet article, nous analysons les effets microéconomiques de l'une des mesures phares des réformes allemandes Hartz (2003-2005), à savoir la réduction de la durée d'indemnisation du chômage pour les chômeurs de plus de 45 ans. Nous étudions deux effets potentiels de cette mesure : sur le taux de reprise d'emploi, mais aussi sur le type d'emploi repris (stabilité de l'emploi retrouvé et type de contrats de travail). À partir d'une estimation en différence-de-différences, nous montrons que les effets de cette mesure ont été relativement limités. En ce qui concerne le taux de reprise d'emploi, seuls les chômeurs d'un certain groupe d'âge (de 55 à 59 ans) ont été significativement affectés par la réforme. Des éléments indiquent que cet effet est lié à l'utilisation antérieure par ce groupe de chômeurs de la filière d'indemnisation chômage comme d'une passerelle vers la retraite anticipée. En complément, nous mettons en évidence certains effets négatifs de la réforme sur la qualité de l'emploi repris."

"Wages in Montenegro are regulated in practice by the Labour Law and by collective agreements. After the fall during the 1990s, the living standards of the Montenegrin population started to recover at the beginning of this decade and, thus, workers' wages have been continuously growing since 2000. The global economic crisis has not, up to the middle of 2009, disrupted that trend: the average net wage in June of this year was €466, which was 18.6 % higher than in June 2008. However, the reduction in economic activity as a result of the global crisis forced the government to announce in July more radical savings measures which will be implemented this autumn. These savings measures are supposed to lead to a 10 % reduction in wages in the public sector. In addition, there are projected changes to the General Collective Agreement and the method of determining the minimum wage in Montenegro. The practical implementation of these measures will depend on the results of this year's tourism season. "

"Youth is a significant period of human life during which young people formulate their aspirations and life goals, seek and find their own roles and responsibilities in society and move towards economic independence. Youth is thus a period of social and psychological transition, with young people's quality of life largely determined by how successfully they make the transition from school to work. The ILO's School-to-Work Transition Survey (SWTS) offers various stakeholders and policy-makers the opportunity to generate an in-depth review of the specific employment challenges facing young people so that they might design more appropriate instruments to support such a transition. In Montenegro, the survey was implemented by MONSTAT, the Statistical Office of Montenegro. The analysis of the SWTS offered here is intended to assist in monitoring the impact of existing youth employment policies and programmes in Montenegro and to contribute to the national dialogue on the formulation of strategies and national instruments to help accomplish that transition"
