Zusammenfassung:This study has examined labour market dynamics in Pakistan using two rounds of the Pakistan Socio-economic Survey (PSES) and shows that variables related to human capital of individuals such as age, education and training have greater influence on the probability of making the transition from unemployment to employment. Government policies could be made more meaningful by improving the information flow about the job opportunities. Whereas education and training play a key role in finding employment, the quality of education needs to be improved and training opportunities may also be provided. Chronic unemployed may particularly be targeted for their adjustment in domestic labour market. (Pak Development Rev/DÜI)
