FLEXICURITY seeks to reconcile flexibility for employers with security for individuals. This concept note, commissioned by ELGPN, outlines the concept, examines why it is increasingly attractive to policy-makers across Europe, and explores some of the issues and debates related to the concept. It also analyses in detail the policy implications of flexicurity for lifelong guidance.

The concept note has been commissioned by ELGPN, and supported by a reference group drawn from its members. The views expressed, however, are those of its author and do not necessarily represent the views of ELGPN or its member-countries.

The author, Ronald G. Sultana, is Professor of Education at the University of Malta.
