Its director-general Richard Lambert feels that the public finances also need to be urgently tackled by the incoming government.
He commented: "Whichever party wins the election will have a lot on its plate, but the number one priority must be to set out a clear and credible plan for restoring the public finances."
This month has also seen the CBI call for reforms to be made to public sector pensions, which it believes are not sustainable in the long term.
