  1. Sub-secretariat of Employment, Labour Policy General Office of Coordination of Employment Construction of a Model of Job Linking The Experience of Mexico’s SNE XIV Inter-American Conference of Labour Ministers Technical Meeting of Group 2 Theme: Employment Services Mexico City, April 5, 2006

  2. Background • The National Employment Service (SNE) is the Public Employment Service (PES) of Mexico whose main goals include facilitating the link-up between those offering and those demanding employment, orienting job seekers and supporting them in presenting their qualifications as well as helping companies in the search for candidates to cover their vacancies. • The SNE was founded in 1978 and currently has a network of more than 139 offices located in the country’s main cities. THE EXPERIENCE OF MEXICO’S SNE

  3. Background • Mexico’s SNE operates in a decentralised way: the Federal Government regulates the actions and transfers resources and State Governments operate the SNE in the federated entities and provides additional resources for the installations, payment of salaries and other expenses. • Since the SNE’s creation, the Federal Government in coordination with State Governments has sought to strengthen and improve the tasks of intermediation in the job market through lines of action that make it possible to broaden contact between those offering and those searching for employment. NEW SCHEMES OF LABOUR LINKAGE OF THE SNE

  4. SNE’S Linking Area Job Listings The services of linking • The placement of workers has been one of the most important actions of SNE. It has had the goal of developing linking services in accordance with the circumstances and needs of the job market. • In this way, the SNE has implemented linking services that range from the traditional function of job listings and job counselling to self-help schemes and those based on information and communicationstechnologies. LA EXPERIENCE OF MEXICO’S SNE

  5. The services of linking • In the development and establishment of the SNE’s linking services, three stages can be distinguished: • From 1978 to 1992: Implementation and consolidation of the traditional mechanisms of linking: job banks. • From 1993 to 2000: Development of programmes of support for placement of workers. • From 2001 to 2006: New schemes of labour linking. THE EXPERIENCE OF MEXICO’S SNE

  6. Personal assistance 1978-1992: job banks • The SNE operates job banks services since 1978 y until 1992 they were the only substantial method of job linking offered to the public. • These services were developed with the following characteristics: • Personalised attention • Job counselling • Pre-selection of candidates based on an interview • Follow-up to placement THE EXPERIENCE OF MEXICO’S SNE

  7. Job Fair, SNE 1993 -2000: programmes of support • Beginning in 1993, the SNE implemented new actions of linking oriented on supporting services of direct placement, among which we can highlight the organisation of Job Fairs and Workshops for job seekers. • Job Fairs are events organised to encourage a direct link between unemployed individuals and employers. • Workshops for job seekers, meanwhile, provide orientation to the population without job experience and with difficulties in job placement. THE EXPERIENCE OF MEXICO’S SNE

  8. 1993 -2000: programmes of support • Likewise in this phase the SNE developed and implemented schemes of coordination with other agents who participate in the job market, such as placement agencies and public and private job banks. With this in mind, the SNE created two mechanisms: the State EmploymentSystem and State Training and Employment Committees. • The diverse interests of social actors who intervene in the job market were channelledthrough these bodies with the goal of achieving greater transparency in the market and facilitating the link between the supply and demand of employment. THE EXPERIENCE OF MEXICO’S SNE

  9. Chambatel Contact Center 2001-2006: the new services of linking • Despite the positive results shown by these mechanisms, the STPS and the SNE considered it was necessary to develop new schemes of attention to the job market that were more agile, modern and accessible to users. • Beginning in 2001, the STPS in coordination with the SNE designed an integral strategy of new services of job linking based on the use of information and communications technologies. THE EXPERIENCE OF MEXICO’S SNE

  10. Mi Chamba 2001-2006: the new services of linking • Five new services: • A free telephone information service on job opportunities (2001). • A free newspaper with job offerings. (2001). • A system of job linking via the Internet (2002). • Establishment of Centres of Labour Intermediation (CIL) (2002). • Computerised kiosks for consulting job offerings. (2003). THE EXPERIENCE OF MEXICO’S SNE

  11. Kiosk Chambanet 2001-2006:the new services of linking • The new of job linking programmes operated by the SNE since 2001 have better positioned the SNE as a modern, dynamic service in tune with the challenges of the labour market. • On a day-to-day basis, these services have helped overcome the limitations of the employment office by: • Providing immediate attention • Avoiding unnecessary transport • Eliminating the use of forms • Using information technologies THE EXPERIENCE OF MEXICO’S SNE

  12. 2001-2006: the new services of linking • Likewise. as part of the new linking strategies actions were taken to provide attention to vulnerable groups. The SNE established the programme Abriendo Espacios (Opening Opportunities), which is aimed at promoting insertion in the labour market of the individuals with differentiated capacities and older adults. • This programme operates as a specialised linking network that seeks to coordinate the inter-institutional effort,public and private, oriented at promoting the training and hiring of these individuals. THE EXPERIENCE OF MEXICO’S SNE

  13. Towards a model of job linking • The set of strategies and actions developed over 28 years have made it possible to build a model of linking in the SNE in tune with a job market in continuous expansion and with high regional mobility in a context of globalisation and growing trade integration. • That model currently makes it possible for the SNE to offer different alternatives and channels of attention to the user public with an integral vision and at same time complementary to services in tune with the needs and profiles of the job market. THE EXPERIENCE OF MEXICO’S SNE

  14. Towards a model of job linking • The challenge for the coming yearsfor the STPS and the SNE is to consolidate this model of linking, strengthening and expanding of new schemes. • With these services, Mexico’s SNE currently makes available the levels of attention recommended by the World Association of Public Employment Services (WAPES) to all the Public Employment (PES) services. • Personalised and in person attention • Attention via telephone • Attention via Internet THE EXPERIENCE OF MEXICO’S SNE

  17. 1 2 3 A model of job linking • In our countries the services of linking based on personalised attention continues to be preferred by the population as the main formal option in the search for employment. • Nevertheless, it is fundamental that in the coming years the employment services of the region promote actions aimed at positioning linking services via the Internet and telephone because of the advantages and benefits that these offer to the labour market.
