Cedefop and Eurostat are continuing their joint work on analysing online job advertisements (OJAs) in the context of the Web Intelligence Hub. The landscaping workshop is a core part of the project. It brings together international labour market country experts (ICEs), National Statistical Institute (NSI) representatives, researchers and developers to discuss the latest trends in European labour markets, explore opportunities for further development, and address emerging challenges.
Organised by Eurostat and Cedefop, the workshop will bring together NSI representatives, ICEs, researchers and developers on 19 and 20 October at Cedefop premises in Thessaloniki. Participants will explore the latest trends in European labour market demand as expressed in OJAs and beyond.
Participants will discuss key aspects of the project. These include assessing how well OJAs represent European labour market vacancies, evaluating existing web sources and identifying new ones, and examining methods to improve [TA1] [ZT2] the quality of the collected data in real time. They will also examine emerging trends in demand for new roles across the EU-27 Member States, the EFTA countries and the UK, explore the role of EURES vacancies further, and assess technical aspects of data collection and analysis.
The discussions aim to assess the current state of project developments, identify key areas for improvement in the OJA collection and classification pipelines, provide insights through cross-country comparisons of the collected data and their representativeness, and strengthen the collaboration between Eurostat, Cedefop, EURES and the NSIs.
The event is open by invitation only.
