As a result of the increasing numbers of papers which were being produced in this series, it was decided to split the series in two, separating health issues from social, employment and migration issues. The Labour Market and Social Policy Occasional Papers series therefore ended at number 63, with the two new titles being: OECD Health Working Papers and OECD Social, Employment and Migration Working Papers.

The papers are generally available only in their original language - English or French - with a summary in the other.
