Welcome to BOS; a research-based podcast by CBS Sustainability!
BOS stands for "The Business of Society", which is somewhat of a guiding principle for the work that we do. Based at Copenhagen Business School (CBS), we study of sustainable practices and developments in organizations, markets and society. As the name indicates, we are interested in how business and society interrelate, especially when considering businesses’ responsibilities towards society.
In this podcast, we will share, discuss, and reflect on CSR and sustainability-related issues through conversations with researchers and practitioners. Featuring our colleagues, we aim to inspire people to reflect and take part in the discussion on how to transition towards more sustainable practices, for organizations and government, and for you and me.

In this episode of BOS, Postdoc Clément Brébion takes us on a journey into the world of applied labour economics and the case of apprenticeship training. Many Western countries are struggling with high youth unemployment and are thus looking at the German apprenticeship system as a prime model to follow for smooth school-to-work transitions. But is this really the case? Does apprenticeship training pave the way into the job market and improve ones ability to be hired? Based on his comparative work looking at France and Germany, Clément sheds light on the peculiarities of introducing subsidies for promoting apprenticeships and firms’ hiring strategy upon completion of apprenticeships.
