19 3. New division of labour bringing challenges for adjustment capacity Skills levels are going up globally, but much more rapidly in fast growing emerging markets. Trade, FDI, and R&D with the emerging markets have the potential to cover a whole range of products, including skills-intensive products, not just in low value added segments of goods and services. Emerging markets share of total FDI will continue to increase while the composition of trade and FDI will see emerging markets attracting a higher share of FDI in high value added manufacture, services, and R&D. Advances in technology, particularly ICT, the relative rise of the service sector and change of business models have ensured that cross border flows are increasingly composed of services, R&D, financial capital and human capital, and not just physical goods. 19

25 Human capital mobility migration flows to Europe limited, but rising political concerns higher share of less skilled, socially excluded, unemployed immigrants less adaptable Percentage of the resident population with tertiary education EU average Australia Canada United States OECD average Immigrants from other OECD countries Emigrants to other OECD countries Immigrants from the rest of the world Foreign-born persons with tertiary education 25
26 Community action for free movement of labour A directive on mutual recognition of qualifications (September 2005): it consolidates, simplifies and modernises 15 existing directives, must be implemented by October A proposal for the establishment of the European Qualifications Framework for lifelong learning (EQF): as a translation device and neutral reference point for comparing qualifications across different education and training systems (September 2006). European Blue Card: a work permit would grant the holder permanent access to the entire EU labour market, favouring skilled young migrants with proficiency in the relevant languages and good job prospects. Students graduating with a Masters degree or equivalent from European universities or good universities abroad could be made 26 automatically eligible.
27 Conclusions and implications successful catch-up in knowledge-based economy requires development of local knowledge base able to substitute for weakening cost-based advantage emerging markets are increasingly able to compete in knowledge-based segments, improving their skill levels markedly and attracting higher shares of global FDI in R&D the share of less skilled occupations in Europe has been decreasing, a remarkable inter-industry turnover has been projected requiring an adequate adaptability of labour force rate of technology progress is fastening bringing about new and life-long changing skill requirements both to workforce and education and training systems instead of sectoral or specific job protection individuals must be equipped to adapt through providing social bridges skills (including the soft) and retraining less regulation in labour markets necessary for improving their flexibility, (horizontal) support to business innovation activities contributing to investment in human resource development 27
