Project Report

The paper presents the main findings of the project 'Benchmarking employment performance and labour market policies' conducted by the Research Network of the European Employment Observatory, under the direction of the author. After a preliminary overview of the analytical areas covered and the topics contained in the project report (para. 2), the paper considers the role of benchmarking in the implementation of the European Employment Strategy (para. 3). It goes on to present the main results and observations deriving from the whole project (para. 4), discussing some of the conceptual and methodological issues arising from the use of benchmarking techniques to foster convergence in labour market efficiency, employment performance, labour market policies and firms' human resource management. Some brief concluding remarks (para. 6) address the institutional implications that arise in the implementation of an effective benchmarking procedure aimed at meeting the requirements of the European Employment Strategy.

Abstract. During the last decades, organizations operate in changing labour market conditions. Labour markets of many countries, including Lithuania, are in a continuous state of changes which demand a new approach to the management of human resources. The purpose of this study was to identify the key factors that transform labour markets and to outline how this transformation is impacting human resource management practices, particularly human resource specialists’ functions and competences. To achieve this purpose, a detailed review of literature was performed and a research based on the questionnaire method was conducted in 2011–2012 in 92 Lithuanian companies. The research included 160 respondents – specialists of human resourcesdepartments. The research has demonstrated that, in the changing labour market conditions, the functions of human resource specialists have become more diverse and are increasingly directed towards fulfilling the needs of the business.Key words: labour market, human resource management, functions, competences

Antecedents And Consequences

With the growing attention to entrepreneurship as an engine of job creation and economic development, it is important for social scientists who are broadly interested in labor market and employment topics to focus attention on new firms and the policies and practices that surround them. The authors argue that the next generation of scholarship should pay particular attention to labor market institutions, the ecosystem of existing employers, and the human resource management practices that provide the strategic context for entrepreneurs and shape the career opportunities for workers. Remarkable variation occurs across space and time in the prevalence and performance of entrepreneurs. There are also many open questions as to the antecedents and consequences of entrepreneurship, for entrepreneurs, their communities, and their employees. The availability of new administrative data across many countries will allow for comparative cross-national studies and will provide opportunities to bring qualitative and mixed-method approaches to entrepreneurial labor market studies. This introduction and the articles in this special issue offer a path forward.
