Review of Labour Market Policy

Review of Labour Market Policy (RLMP) is the official journal of EU-ERA that aims to facilitate the dialogue between policymakers, administrators, academicians, and researchers interested in new database development and model approaches in designing and evaluating labour market policies. RLMP also promotes the inter-linkages between the labour market and its connection to various topics such as investment, trade, income distribution, poverty, social policy, demography and ageing, and migration. The journal operates a double-blind peer review system by retaining the anonymity of both authors and reviewers.

Aims and scope

Labour market indicators and their economic linkages are among the most important statistical measures for research and policy at the national, regional and local levels. Analyses often rely on the survey-based indicators that are valuable but nonetheless incomplete barometer of labour market conditions. For example, the consequences of Covid-19 pandemic clearly provide a signal for policy makers to have up-to-date databases and the need for alternative measures of labour market conditions. A more complete assessment of labour market conditions would take into account characteristics of the unemployed that might affect their employability-for example, how long they have been without work and their skills in relation to the requirements of available jobs. Existing survey data may provide an incomplete and noisy picture of the characteristics of potential job candidates and their labour market histories. Further, any full assessment of labour market conditions would consider the demand side as well as the supply side of the labour market.

Review of labour Market Policy aims at facilitating the dialogue between policy makers, administrators, academics and researchers interested in new database development and model approaches in the design and evaluation of labour market policies. Furthermore, this journal also promotes the inter-linkages between labour market and its connection to wide range of topics such as investment, trade, income distribution, poverty, social policy, demography and aging, and migration. The current focus of this journal is on following research areas (not limited to):
