Amendment 37 #
Recital 1
(1) Member States and the Union should work towards developing a coordinated strategy for employment and particularly for promoting a skilled, trained and adaptable workforce and labour markets responsive to economic change and with a view to achieving the full employment and social progress objectives set out in Article 3 of the Treaty on European Union.

Amendment 41 #
Recital 2

Amendment 51 #
Recital 3
(3) The employment guidelines are consistent with the broad guidelines for the economic policies, which cannot be limited to achieving fiscal and monetary benchmarks. .
Amendment 65 #
Recital 5
(5) In accordance with the Treaty provisions, the Union has developed and implemented policy coordination instruments for fiscal policy and macro- structural policies. The European Semester combines the different instruments in an overarching framework for integrated multilateral economic and budgetary surveillance. The streamlining and strengthening of the European Semester as set out in the Commission's 2015 Annual Growth Survey willmay further improve its functioning. This instrument must be examined carefully, however, as it has not yet improved the economic situation and fiscalism is making it difficult for the Member States worst affected by the crisis to carry out the necessary structural reforms.
Amendment 73 #
Recital 6
(6) The financial and economic crisis revealed and emphasised important weaknesses in the economyies of the Union and its Member StateMember States and in the EU’s coordination mechanisms. It has also underscored the close interdependence of the Member States' economies and labour markets. Moving the UnionMember States to a state of strong, sustainable and inclusive growth and job creation is the key challenge faced today. This requires coordinated and ambitious policy action both on Union and national level, in line with the provisions of the Treaty and the Union economic governance. Combining supply and demand side measures, these actions should encompass a boost to investment, a renewed commitment to structural reforms and exercising fiscal responsibility.
Amendment 92 #
Recital 8
(8) Action in line with the guidelines is an important contribution to reaching the goals of the Europe 2020 strategy. The guidelines constitute an integrated set of European and national policies, which Member States and the Union should implement in order to achieve the positive spill-over effects of coordinated structural reforms, an appropriate overall economic policy mix and a more consistent contribution from European policies to the Europe 2020 strategy’s objectives, which will necessarily involve continuous critical reflection on the strategy.
