Mutual LearningBenchmarking among PES
Part 1: Introduction
Part 2: Results of international benchmarking in AMS
Part 3: Transition to a continuous benchmarking within European PES
Meeting of Heads of PES
Prague, June 25-26

Providing a shared modular data base on PES-performance
Comparing how the performance of participating partners evolves over time (and circumstances)
Exchanging good practices designed to enhance performance
Introduction: what is the working group all about?
Herbert Buchinger
ArbeitsmarktserviceÖsterreich
Introduction: who takes part/since when
The working group took up its meetings in 2002 and has continued since then with financial support by the European Commission
In 2002, there were 6 PES members
In 2009, there are 15 PES members
Project leader: AMS Austria supported by a Coordinating group

Part 1: Measuring performance: In which way?
So far there are 7 quantitative performance indicators ranging from „transition from unemployment to employment“ to „employers satisfaction with PES-sevices“
Example: (Share of) transitions to employment after participation in training

Part 1: Comparing PES-Performance – does it make sense?
Data base is coherent; measurement biases are explicitely taken into account in the benchmarking process
Dynamic comparison (of PES-specific „time path“) becomes more important than static comparison („cross-section benchmarking for a single year“)

Part 1: General Results so far
Website: www.pes-benchmarking.eu
Platform on Good Practices based on some evidence
Peer-Reviews and seminars on identified Good practices together with WAPES for experts of all PES
Good Practices linked to „hot“ political initiatives like flexicurity or new skills for new jobs
But: it is up to every PES to use the information

Austrian ExperienceWhy does AMS invest resources in the
benchmarking ?
Organisation „survives“ only if it
is innovative
avoids political questions on legitimacy by good business results.
Innovation is stronger by external comparisons
Why re-inventing the wheel?
Copy is “cheaper” than new development
Management needs information to steer the organisation
Are the achieved results good or unfavourable?
Assessment is only possible by external comparison
Comparison shows possible ways for improvement

Part 2: Austrian ExperienceChange in the expectations of the
management
Main focus at the start:
Is the performance of AMS a good one compared to other PES?
Focus now:
How can we improve our weak points? What can we learn from others?
By exchanging Good practices designed to enhance performance
By dynamic comparison (what can we learn from those which improved?)

Austrian ExperienceWith which PES does AMS
compareitself so far?
Comparison of results
We look for PES with comparable structurs of clients, definitions of indicators, measurement methods, dynamics of the labour market, etc.
Finland, France, Germany, Slovenia, Sweden
Comparison of Processes
We look for PES with very good results in process parts, independently of comparability with AMS
VDAB-BE, the Netherlands, Ireland,…

Part 2: Austrian ExperienceLessons learnt
Some examples what AMS has learnt:
Costumer satisfaction:
Integration of costumers goals in the steering system (SE)
Integrated IT-and Self-Service Systems:
Matching-system, e-Jobroom (VDAB-BE, NL)
Case-Load-System (IE)
Systematic Multi-Channel-System:
Contact Centres, Channel-System (UK, VDAB-BE)
Staff competencies:
Improving staff competencies(FI, IE, NE, CH)
Improving Processes:
Early intervention (FI, NL)

Communication: the key to benefit from participating in the working group?
Communication within the working group:
the „easy“ part
Communication within the PES represented in the Working group: the „difficult“ part
Establishing structures to support the flow of intra-PES-communication

Next Steps:Transition to a continuous Benchmarking
- 2 workshops a year
- All PES can participate
- 3 moduls: Identification of „Good Practices“ (working group) Exploring Good Practices together with WAPES (peer-reviews) Transfer of Good Practices (maybe „new“ PES to PES-
dialogue???)

Thank You very much for Your attention!
I hope some of my colleagues represented in the working group can add some information what they do
with the results
