2. MIGRATIONS
In the EU-15 countries, positive net migration has been the main driver
of population growth over the last decade which was characterised by decreasing
natural growth.
Immigration now accounts for three quarters of the net growth in the
population of EU- 15 countries.
8. A. Overview of the Social situation in a EU of 25 member states
3. EDUCATION AND ITS OUTCOMES
Attainment levels of the population have improved significantly over the
last thirty years, particularly among women. In 2002 77% of young people aged 20- 24
in the current Union ( EU- 25) had an upper secondary qualification. At the same time,
however, 17% of people aged 18- 24 left the education system with only lower secondary
education at best.
Younger generation is better qualified:
In 2002, 77% of young people aged 20-24 completed USE, and
55% of people aged 50-64 completed USE
Disparities in attainment levels between the sexes have been reduced
throughout the Union for the population as a whole.

5. UNEMPLOYMENT
EU- 15 unemployment: a first increase since 1996. In 2002, the total number of
unemployed people in the EU- 25 stood at 18.6 million or 8.8% of the labour force.
Females more likely than males to be unemployed in most Member States.
The female unemployment rate ( 9.8%) in the EU- 25 was almost 2 percentage points higher
than the male unemployment rate ( 8.0% ) in 2002, although this gap is on a declining trend.
Females more affected than males by long- term unemployment. While
women formed around 44% of the EU- 25 labour force, they accounted for practically half
of the unemployed

the most competitive and dynamic knowledge-based economy in the world, capable of
sustainable economic growth with more and better jobs and greater social cohesion’.
32. D. Diversity
1. WHAT IS DIVERSITY?
The term is often used to refer to differences based on ethnicity, gender,
age, religion, disability, national origin and sexual orientation, diversity
encompasses an infinite range of individuals' unique characteristics and
experiences, including communication styles, physical characteristics such as
height and weight, and speed of learning and comprehension.
33. D. Diversity
2. DIVERSITY IN EUROPE
There are six so-called core dimensions of diversity: 1- gender, 2 - ethnicity/race,
diversity
3 -age, 4 - disability, 5 - religion/belief and 6 - sexual orientation. Additional issues
specific to a country or region are based on the respective history and culture.
3. LEGISLATION IN EUROPE
In 2002 and 2003, the European Union adopted three anti-discrimination
directives which have to be implemented in National legislation in all 25 EU member
states. These directives cover all six core dimensions of diversity and ban direct
and indirect discrimination, as well as harassment.
34. D. Diversity
4. DIVERSITY MANAGEMENT
Changing demographics, shifting employee attitudes, and the emergence of a global economy make it
increasingly necessary for companies and other organizations to develop effective strategies (strategic plan)
for managing diversity in the workplace. Every organization must develop a training plan that supports its
diversity intervention goals.

8. STRATEGIES TO RECRUIT AND RETAIN TALENT (DIVERSE
EMPLOYEES)
Keeping and recruiting good employees is vital to company`s success.
Therefore companies must incorporate strategic plan into their recruiting function
to attract talent at all levels.
and must develop strategies to retain talent.
Many RESEARCHES validate the reality that the manager plays a significant role in
influencing the employee`s commitment level and retention. There are a number of MANAGER
RETENTION PRACTICES.

and support these employees. There will be a need to develop AWARENESS,
COMMUNICATION SKILLS and EDUCATION.
43. D. Diversity
10. WOMEN IN MANAGEMENT POSITIONS
The last priority is to promote gender diversity. The number of female employees, in
particular in management ranks, is still lower than the proportion of women attending the schools
and the universities. This can be partly attributed to the industrial nature of the operations. Women
are still a long way from achieving equal representation in European companies and remain hard
to find in management positions.

COMMUNITY FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
There are already a number of existing Community finacial instruments and initiatives (such as
EQUAL, URBAN II, SOCRATES, LEONARDO DA VINCI, YOUTH and CULTURE 2000) that directly
or indirectly support issues related to diversity.
Coherence and synergy between all EU initiatives is necessary to avoid overlaps to draw
maximum benefit from results obtained.
45. E. Proposal of ETDF tasks about Diversity
ON CONCLUSION
DIVERSITY is a reality in labor markets and customer markets today. To be successful in
working with and gaining value from this diversity requires a SUSTAINED, SYSTEMIC
APPROACH and LONG-TERM COMMITMENT. Success is facilitated by a perspective that
considers diversity to be an opportunity for everyone in an organization to learn from each
other how better to accomplish their work and an occasion that requires a supportive and
COOPERATIVE ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE as well as GROUP LEADERSHIP and
PROCESS SKILLS that can facilitate effective group functioning. Organizations that invest
their resources in taking advantage of the opportunities that diversity offers should outperform
those that fail to make such investments.
