Mission statement
AIAS desires to be a leading academic centre with a threefold task:
- To perform and facilitate research aimed at developing and empirically testing and applying theories that can explain the working of labour markets, labour relations and organizations, and social and labour policies in an internationally comparative perspective.
- To develop integrated and multidisciplinary teaching programmes concerning these issues in cooperation with partners both inside and outside the University, both nationally and internationally, that attract foreign and Dutch students.
- To provide expertise to society by supplying analytical tools, results and data to enlighten policymaking in the field of labour and to contribute to the intellectual and public debate on labour, employment and social policies.
