David Cameron will call for Britain to overtake Germany and become a nation of "full employment" in a speech setting out Conservative jobs pledges later.
The PM is aiming for Britain to have the highest percentage of people in work of any developed nation.
Mr Cameron will say it has been a "tough few years" but that the country is "coming out the other side"
Labour said the Conservatives' promises would sound like "empty words" to the unemployed or those on low pay.
Mr Cameron's goal of "full employment" would involve the UK, currently 72%, overtaking Germany's 74% in terms of the percentage of people in work, said BBC assistant political editor Norman Smith.
There is no timescale, but it is an "aspiration which he wants to achieve", he added.
'Tough years'The prime minister will say: "Full employment may be an economic term, but this is what it means in human terms: it means more of our fellow men and women with the security of a regular wage; it means you, your family and your children having a job and getting on in life."
Mr Cameron will say it had been a "tough few years" for the UK but the country was "coming out the other side" and creating more jobs than the rest of Europe put together.
"That's what our long-term plan means for you."
Mr Cameron will add: "We're the party of the roofers and the retailers; the builders and the businesswomen... We're the ones who back people who strike out on their own, take the risks, and create wealth and jobs in our country."
He will include investment in infrastructure to attract businesses and creating three million new apprenticeships.
'Stagnating' wagesThe government-backed start-up loans scheme currently provides about £5,000 to young entrepreneurs founding a business. The Tories say they will make a total of £300m of lending available by the end of the next parliament.
Meanwhile, shadow chancellor Ed Balls is to warn that people on lower and middle incomes are seeing their incomes "stagnating" in many countries.
He will say: "Here in Britain working people are now £1,600 a year worse off since 2010 and this is a key reason why the government has failed to balance the books.
"And it is why David Cameron and George Osborne are completely out of touch when they try to tell people in Britain that the economy is fixed."
