ILO’s Assistant Director-General for Policy José Manuel Salazar-Xirinachs has said that skills and education need to be addressed differently today than 20 or 30 years ago.
“Just as the shift from agrarian to industrial economies required specific new skills in the world of work， the on-going shift from industrial to information-based knowledge economies is also changing the ways we live， work and learn，” said Salazar-Xirinachs during a speech at the “Global Trade and Development Week 2014” in Kuala Lumpur.
He referred to the “21 Century Skills” that involve new ways of thinking and working， new global vision as well as new tools for working based on new information and communications technologies.
The ILO official highlighted key challenges， such as the skills mismatch which partly results from the inability of the education and training system to adapt to these new realities.
“Addressing these disconnects is a matter of public policy， but not exclusively. It is also very much a matter of private sector engagement and responsibility，” he said.
Companies should not wait at the end of the education and training pipeline for graduates with the right skills or look for new talents abroad， but should take a broader view of their workforce needs
They should build public-private partnerships， engage pro-actively with education and training providers in order to align education with the skills needed for employment and make efforts to combine formal education and training with on the job apprenticeship opportunities
The ILO official gave the example of the Godrej Group in India， a conglomerate which set a goal of training one million urban and rural youth in employable skills by 2020. Two-thirds of graduates found jobs in consumer goods and agriculture-related subsidiaries.
The Age of Responsibility
Salazar-Xirinachs underlined a set of ILO policies that have been developed focusing on the school-to-work transition and the modernization of vocational training institutions and skills anticipation.
He mentioned the Skills for Trade and Economic Diversification STED， a tool designed to provide strategic guidance to support growth and jobs in sectors that have the potential to increase exports， to contribute to economic diversification and to integration into Global Value Chains.
He mentioned the fact the ILO had led the preparation of the G20 Skills Strategy in 2010 for strong， sustained and balanced growth.
Finally， the ILO official insisted on the need to further develop apprenticeships which is “the closest thing to a magic bullet” when addressing youth unemployment， school to work transition and skills mismatch.
“The responsibility of companies to invest in skills and talent and engaging in education and training in innovative ways to meet the requirements of the 21st Century workforces is but one example of a much broader responsibility and sustainability agenda，” he concluded， referring to “the Age of Responsibility”.

国际劳工组织（ILO）负责政策事务的副总干事乔斯日前表示，随着工业经济向以信息为基础的知识型经济转型，我们的生活与工作方式发生了巨大变化，要求劳动者掌握新的技能。国际劳工组织官员强调，当前主要挑战是技能与岗位不匹配，从而导致培训和教育体系无法适应新的实际需求。各大公司不能坐等专业技能对口的毕业生前来应聘，或到海外招聘新型人才，而应以更开阔的视角审视劳动者的需求。公司应寻求合作，积极与教育培训机构协调，使教育与求职所需技能相匹配，将正规教育培训与工作实践相结合。国际劳工组织已制定相关政策，注重学校向职场的过渡，注重职业培训机构与技能预期的现代化。
