In general terms I am interested in labour market policies, regulatory institutions and the roles played in them by management, labour, government and other stakeholders. More specifically, my work and research interests concern:
- Workforce training and development
- Policies, institutional innovations and practices encouraging skills development
- Different plans or programs to support workers and the labour market (employment insurance, pension plans, work time, ETC.)
- Sector plans or mechanisms (construction industry, workforce sector committees)
- Management organization and actions
In my work I look at these issues from a national or international viewpoint, ranging from case studies to comparative analyses.
