Fwd: Reminder - EESC public hearing on The rights of live-in carers (Brussels, 25.4.2016)

View this message in your browser Version française ci-dessous INVITATION TO A PUBLIC HEARING On 25 April 2016, the Section for Employment, Social Affairs and Citizenship organises a public hearing on the Rights of live-in carers.   The organisation and provision of long-term care (LTC) is a challenge many Member States are facing. The sector is low paid, highly feminised and employs often undocumented migrant workers. It suffers from workforce imbalances and skills shortages. Situations of undeclared work and poor working conditions affect mainly "live-in" care workers.   Proactive measures to encourage the creation of quality, well-paid jobs in the sector with decent working conditions are needed to ensure an adequate labour supply for the LTC sector.   The public hearing - which will contribute to the opinion on the subject - will elaborate on the human and social rights of "live-in" care workers in the context of labour supply and mobility issues. It will explore these issues in the interplay of labour and migration policies.   Please find the agenda here.   You can register for the conference here.    Venue: EESC, Room JDE 62, Rue Belliard, 99, 1040 Brussels   25 April 2016, 9.30 a.m. – 1.00 p.m. INVITATION À UNE AUDITION PUBLIQUE Le 25 avril 2016, la Section spécialisée "Emploi, Affaires sociales et Citoyenneté organise une Audition Publique sur les droits des aides-soignants à domicile.   L'organisation et la prestation de soins à long terme est un défi auquel beaucoup d'États membres sont actuellement confrontés. Le secteur est sous-payé, largement féminisé et emploie souvent des travailleurs migrants sans papiers. Il souffre de déséquilibres dans ses effectifs et de déficits de qualification. Situations de travail non-déclaré et de mauvaises conditions affectent surtout les employés de maison.   Des mesures d'anticipation active, qui encouragent la création des emplois de qualité, bien rémunérés et assortis de conditions de travail décentes, sont indispensables pour garantir une offre de main-d'œuvre appropriée pour ce secteur.   L'audition publique – qui contribuera à l'avis sur le sujet – traitera la question des droits humains et sociaux des travailleurs de soins employés de maison dans le contexte des problèmes d'offre de travail et de mobilité. Il examinera ces problématiques dans leurs corrélations avec les politiques du travail et de migration.     Voir le programme de la conférence.   Pour vous enregistrer à la conférence cliquez ici.
