2 Unemployment has started to decline in the OECD, but further progress is required as the job recovery has not gone very fast yet. People have borne considerable personal, economic and social costs that may prove to be long-lasting: –long-term unemployment remains persistently high, –many employees have experienced economic hardship. Fixed term contracts are increasingly used for new hires, but they are not an automatic stepping-stone to permanent work. Not just more jobs but also better jobs are needed. The good news is that there is little sign of a trade-off between job quantity and job quality across countries. 2 The recovery is gaining momentum but there is no time for complacency

12 12 There is little sign of a trade-off between job quantity and job quality across countries…
