lpv:translated text	"The Commission is studying very thoroughly the consequences of the recent financial and economic crisis for the labour market and how the European labour market transformed compared with the previous decade. It is absolutely true that even before the crisis, not simply as a consequence of it, the rise of precarious forms of employment were a major concern. Some countries, especially Mr Cercas’s home country of Spain, developed in a very unfortunate way, producing a large number of unprotected jobs especially in certain industries like construction. This is especially the case for young people and workers with a migrant background. These groups, especially where they overlap, find themselves in a very difficult situation. We are paying attention to this, and this is also why in the Europe 2020 strategy and the Agenda for New Skills and Jobs, we are putting forward a number of initiatives to address the situation. One such initiative, on which we had a tremendous debate in this House also, was the question of the single open-ended contract. This is because we want to bridge the gap; we want to abolish the segmentation of the labour market. We are not offering this as a kind of uniform solution because the reality of the labour market in various countries is quite diverse. There are actually some economies that are performing well, where the protection remained quite solid, and this type of segmentation, which is mainly a characteristic of the Mediterranean countries, was not apparent. In some of the forthcoming conferences, including the 16 November conference on flexi-security, we intend to continue a thorough analysis of these developments and we will come back to this next year in various initiatives."@en1
