Head, Jobs & Income Division, Directorate for Employment, Labour and Social Affairs, OECD
I am a labor economist, currently heading the division of the OECD that produces the Employment Outlook every year, as well as many other flagship publications on employment, wages, redistribution and and inequality. I conduct and oversee research / studies on labor market policies - hiring subsidies, training, and programs for young people. I also work on discrimination, as well as on labor market regulations, notably employment protection, working hours, labor cost and the unemployment insurance.
