EURES is for European Employment Services, which brings together the European Commission and the public employment services of the countries belonging to the European Union (and its Economic Area, including Lichtenstein, Iceland, Norway and Switzerland) since 1994.

The mission of EURES is to support free movement of work-power in European countries.

EURES tasks:

• to give information and advices to job seekers about possibilities of employment, working and life conditions in European countries;
• to help employers to find most adjusting workers;
• to support cross-border region job seekers and employers with information and advisory.

Latvia became partner of EURES after joining European Union. Both the job seekers and the employers will benefit from this partnership. Within this information network everybody will find information about vacancies, working and life conditions in Latvia and other European countries o­n Internet. Those job seekers, who have no access to Internet, or will need consultation, are welcome at our EURES advisors. Advisors will consult you and help to find entire necessary information.

Employers will have opportunity to place information about vacancies and search for necessary employee from any European country in EURES database for free. Employers will get all the information operative, including CVs of perspective employees, saving time and money necessary for old-fashioned way of newspaper vacancy publication.
For Employment State Agency of Latvia this partnership in EURES offers wider possibilities for high quality analyses of Latvian and European job market and will help us to give more effective services for job seekers and employers.
