Govt booklet on jobs
The Government will present its interpretation of the employment issue in a booklet to be released later this week. When announcing the preparation of the booklet in January, the 'Minister of Labour (Mr Bolger) said that the public debate on employment was “too one-sided.” .“It is dominated by negative and sometimes alarmist viewpoints,” he said. The. release of “Jobs and People" will coincide "with Mr Bolger’s return from the International Labour Organ-
- isation's conference in J Geneva. The booklet deals with 5 such issues as changes in New Zealand’s economic cir- - cumstances, labour market, i society, energy, and technbf logy. The booklet also refers t to responsibilities in employ- • ment, and says that employment is not the responsibility ■ of the Government alone. i Copies of the booklet will be available from district I offices of the Labour Departi ment, the Social Welfare De- - partment, main post offices, • and public libraries.
