EURES:
Launched in 1994 , the European employment services (EURES) is a European cooperation network between the European Commission, the European Labour Authority (ELA), the national public employment service and other admitted employment services in all the EU countries, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland.
EURES facilitates the free movement of workers by providing information and employment support services to workers and employers, and by enhancing cooperation and information exchange between its member organisations.
The network has always worked hard to ensure that European citizens can benefit from the same opportunities, despite language barriers, cultural differences, bureaucratic challenges, diverse employment laws and a lack of recognition of educational certificates across Europe.
The activities of the EURES network are supported and coordinated by the European Coordination Office (ECO), which manages the EURES portal and the European Online Job Days (EOJD) web platform.
Each participating country ( 31 ) designates a National Coordination Office (NCO), generally linked to either their Public Employment Services (PES) or their Ministry of Labour, and is responsible for coordinating the national network of Members and Partners.
Services to jobseekers and employers are provided by EURES Members and Partners, which provide a different range of EURES services depending on the size of the organisation or the nature of the other services it normally provides.
