[excerpt]

The latest available forecasts from the IMF and the OECD point to a weak uptick in economic activity

in 2013 and 2014. This will continue to hold back short-term employment growth and hinder progress

towards the medium-term objective of restoring the employment to working-age population ratio prevailing

before the crisis.
