Abstract:By the end of the millennium the service sector accounted for roughly 65% of employment in the OECD countries. It is clear from the long-term trends in employment structure that net job creation in advanced economies occurs almost exclusively in the service sector. This article analyses the drivers of and barriers to service employment growth and reviews available policy options. Commending development of the industry-service nexus, skills, and facilitation of female employment, the authors also suggest measures to support labour mobility and to enhance the tradability of services within the single European market, which may stir controversy among trade unionists.
