| Summary: | This Jobs Diagnostic presents the
characteristics and constraints of the labor market in
Bangladesh, identifies the objectives of the jobs agenda,
and proposes a policy framework to progress toward them.
This multisectoral diagnostic assesses the relationships
between supply- and demand-side factors that interact to
determine job creation, quality, and inclusion outcomes.
Understanding the factors that influence jobs outcomes
requires a holistic approach capturing issues such as access
to markets, inputs, capital, technology, skills, and
matching of supply and demand. Standard labor analysis tends
to miss crucial aspects of the demand side of job creation,
while growth diagnostics have no direct link to jobs. The
Jobs Diagnostic thus intends to provide the comprehensive
evidence base to support the development of a national jobs
strategy that focuses on policies to foster an environment
for more, better, inclusive jobs in Bangladesh. |
