Labour Market Information Review and Analysis: In-focus on Northern Lebanon

This study was conducted within the framework of the International Labour Organization (ILO) project “Enabling job resilience and protecting decent work conditions in rural communities affected by the Syrian refugee crisis in Northern Lebanon”. The project’s goal is to generate employment through local economic development and sustainable enterprises. An immediate objective of the project, related to the current study on the labour market, is to enhance access to employment and livelihood opportunities. The purpose of this study is to collect and analyse labour market information and services provided by different organizations across Lebanon, but particularly North Lebanon. The information presented here should serve as a useful reference on the status of the labour market for jobseekers, employers, education personnel, trainers, researchers and government institutions. The study also makes recommendations on gaps in information, updating information products, and labour market policies and policy briefs.
