La pandémie de COVID 19 met au jour les faiblesses structurelles dont pâtissent de longue date nos économies et les écarts croissants de niveau de vie entre les pays, les régions et les populations. Au moment où la campagne vaccinale fait naître progressivement des espoirs, la relance de l’après-pandémie crée de nouvelles occasions de poser les fondations d’une reprise vigoureuse.
Éditorial et résumé
COVID-19 exposed existing structural weaknesses in our economies such as gaps in coverage of social safety nets and digital divides, reinforcing inequality. It added new challenges such as increased risk of unemployment and bankruptcies, scarring effects on youth, and the aggravation of physical and mental health of the vulnerable. Many economies were struggling with sluggish productivity growth, lack of quality jobs and green transition costs already before COVID-19.

Going for Growth is an OECD flagship publication alongside the OECD Economic Outlook and OECD Economic Surveys. First published in 2005, this annual report provides an overview of structural policy developments in OECD countries from a comparative perspective. Based on a broad set of indicators of structural policies and performance, each edition takes stock of recent progress in implementing policy reforms to improve labour productivity and utilisation that were identified as priorities in the previous edition. The set of internationally comparable indicators provided here enables countries to assess their economic performance and structural policies in a broad range of areas.
