Abstract
An increasing rate of unemployment and the pursuit of becoming the most competitive economy are the main challenges of the European labour market. To reach the strategic targets a new concept, flexicurity, has been introduced. Flexicurity is believed to decrease current unemployment rates by creating more and better jobs. A considerable amount of effort has been carried out by the Commission to create common principles of this concept and to introduce flexicurity in Europe. In this article I will try to point out the main characteristic of flexicurity as well as its impact with unemployment of women and Turkish labour market. The role of flexicurity on part time agreements is also studied by a comparative method and an emphasis on Turkish law.
