SEEMP: A Marketplace for the Labour Market

Employment Services are an important topic in the agenda of localgovernments and in the EU due to their social implications, such as sustainability,workforce mobility, workers' re-qualification paths, training for fresh graduates andstudents. Many administrations started their own E-Government projects whoseimitations emerge as the demand of workers mobility increases. The SEEMP systempresented in this paper overcomes this issue in different ways: starting bilateralcommunications with near-border similar offices, building a federation of the localemployment services, and merging isolate trials. The SEEMP approach relies on adistributed semantic service oriented infrastructure able to federate local projects, inorder to create geographically aggregated services for employment by leveragingexisting local ones. The social and technical aspects of the SEEMP project arepresented, showing how the SEEMP system is integrated with National levelsystems.
