EEPO aims to improve European and national policy-making by providing information, analysis and insights on the design, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of policies.

The main purpose of the EEPO is to produce high-quality research papers on the labour market and employment, which can be accessed through the EEPO's library.

In developing its research, the EEPO brings together a network of experts from across the EU. They specialise in a range of topics relating to the labour market and employment, such as unemployment, work-life balance, education systems, skills supply, and wages.
