The OSE in collaboration with three partners – the Public Policy and Management Institute (PPMI, lead partner), RAND Europe and Kooperationsstelle Hamburg (KOOP) – was awarded a new Framework contract with the European Commission. The purpose of the multiple framework contracts is to assist the European Commission in implementing the Better Regulation Guidelines in its activities. More specifically, these are services supporting DG EMPL on impact assessment, evaluation and monitoring in the areas of employment, social affairs, labour mobility and skills. The OSE researchers involved in this project are Stéphanie Coster, Ramón Peña-Casas and Bart Vanhercke.
