HCP: monitoring of the socio-economic reality of our country of which the labor market constitutes a key component

HIBAPRESS-RABAT-HCP

The High Commission for Planning (HCP), targeting the labor market, especially at the time of the digital revolution, as well as by the socio-economic dynamic in which Morocco is part, the HCP sees that it has become imperative to adapt the tools for measuring and monitoring the socio-economic reality of our country of which the labor market constitutes a key component.

The High Commission for Planning was quick to announce, yesterday Monday, the launch of the process of overhauling its National Employment Survey which constitutes a fundamental pillar of the collection of information on the labor market in Morocco. The new system will be tested in 2025 with a view to its adoption in 2026.

This initiative emanates from the HCP’s conviction as to the relevance of adapting its labor market observation system and its concern to regularly ensure compliance with international standards governed, in this area, by the International Organization of Labor (ILO)”.

The HCP plans to implement its new labor market observation system in 2026

This overhaul process, which will be carried out in close consultation with the various stakeholders, including key ministerial departments, the various public and private actors of the labor market in Morocco, and ILO experts, should also explore new themes linked to the labor market, in particular green employment and labor migration.

The work related to this overhaul will extend over the period 2024-2025, with a view to establishing a new labor market observation system in 2026.
