Title: Labour market and employment policy in Lebanon
Abstract: The focus of country reports has moved to the mapping of existing employment policies and active labour market programmes. They include assessments of outcomes and their effectiveness in addressing employment challenges. Each report also includes a short description of the recent political context in the country. It covers issues such as the impact of the Arab Spring on the economy and employment, the emergence of new players and actors, and any recent policy changes (such as government, donors or funding). Section one provides an overview of the labour market and the impact of the Syrian crisis on Lebanon and section two describes key labour market challenges. Section three provides an overview of actors in the policy environment, their roles and institutional capacities, while section four provides an overview of current employment policy measures in Lebanon. Recommendations for the development of employment policies and programmes are presented at the end of the paper.
