II.I Study visit

Study visit to the Ministry of Manpower (MoM)

The visit will examine how the Ministry of Manpower connects policy design with implementation, operational delivery and evaluation. The German delegation will focus on the institutional mechanisms used to translate political objectives into clear responsibilities, administrative procedures, digital services, employer obligations and measurable outcomes.

A particular area of interest will be the role of data in regulatory and preventive work. The discussion should demonstrate how labour-market and workplace information is used to identify patterns, focus inspections and support measures, differentiate between risk groups and assess whether interventions produce the intended results.

The delegation will also explore how the Ministry coordinates implementation across organisational boundaries. Relevant questions include how new policies are developed jointly with operational organisations, how implementation costs and IT requirements are considered, and how employers and other stakeholders are involved without weakening public accountability.

For German social security institutions, the main learning opportunity lies in establishing a shorter and more reliable feedback loop between policy, administration, service delivery and impact measurement. The visit should therefore focus not only on individual digital solutions, but on the governance arrangements that allow policy and operational evidence to inform one another continuously.
