This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides an initial evaluation of the comprehensive reform of the Spanish labor market undertaken in 2012. It describes the key components of the 2012 reform and places them in the context of the evolution of labor market institutions in other OECD member countries, with a particular focus on collective bargaining and employment protection legislation. The report also assesses the impact of the reform on the ability of firms to adjust wages and working time to cope with demand shocks, as well as the flows in the labor market for different types of contracts and the overall duality of the Spanish labor market. It also considers what complementary reforms would be required to improve the effectiveness of the labor market reform, in particular in the area of active labor market policies.

This book was released on 2020-02-13 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spain’s structural reforms, implemented around 2012, have arguably contributed to a faster and stronger economic recovery. In particular, there is strong evidence that the 2012 labor market reforms increased wage flexibility, which helped the Spanish economy to regain competitiveness and create jobs. But the impact of these labor reforms on income inequality and social inclusion has not been analyzed much. This paper aims to shed light on this issue by employing an econometric decomposition procedure combined with the synthetic control method. The results indicate that the 2012 labor reforms have helped improve employment and income equality outcomes with no substantial impact on the overall risk of poverty. Nevertheless, the reforms appear to have induced a deterioration of average hours worked, in-work poverty, and possibly also of involuntary part-time employment.

Book Synopsis The Impact of the Spanish Labour Market Reform on the On-the-job Search Rate by :
Download or read book The Impact of the Spanish Labour Market Reform on the On-the-job Search Rate written by and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Country Focus discusses the effects of the reform of the severance payment regime on job-to-job mobility in Spain. Job-to-job mobility is important in the process of allocation of resources towards more productive sectors and companies. Prior to the reform in 2012, Spanish employees hired under open-ended contracts enjoyed a particularly generous severance payment regime by international standards. This is likely to have contributed to the observed comparatively low job-to-job mobility. The 2012 labour market reform, amongst other things, introduced a cap on the severance payment of employees hired with open-ended contracts, mainly with the aim of encouraging new hires. A possible positive side effect of the reform may be to decrease employees' disincentives to job mobility. In the current macroeconomic context, job-to-job transitions are far too infrequent events to estimate directly the impact of the reform on job mobility. Instead, we analyse the impact of the reform on the search rate of employees hired on open-ended contracts - the so called "on-the-job search rate". The hypothesis of an increase in search behaviour after the reform is tested empirically. The results support the hypothesis of a significant increase in job search behaviour post-reform, which may translate into higher levels of job mobility once employment creation moves more sustainably into positive territory and more vacancies materialise.
Book Synopsis The Spanish Labor Market in a Cross-Country Perspective by : Ms.Florence Jaumotte
Download or read book The Spanish Labor Market in a Cross-Country Perspective written by Ms.Florence Jaumotte and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Spanish labor market is not working: the unemployment rate is structurally very high; wages are not very responsive to labor market conditions, causing a high cyclicality of unemployment; and the labor market is highly dual. Compared with the EU15, Spanish labor market institutions and policies stand out by the structure of its collective bargaining, which occurs mostly at an intermediate level, and by very high severance payments for permanent workers. Based on a quantitative analysis, the paper shows that moving away from the intermediate level of bargaining would go a long way toward bringing the unemployment rate closer to the EU15 average. The key reform needed to reduce the share of temporary workers is reducing employment protection of permanent workers. Substantially reforming the collective bargaining system and reducing the protection of permanent workers are likely to be highly complementary to secure a substantial reduction in the unemployment rate. The recent 2010 labor market reform attempts to address these issues, although its effects are still to materialize.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Selected Issues paper presents a preliminary assessment of recent labor market reforms in Spain, where the 2012 labor market reforms are making a difference. Wage moderation is contributing to a visible recovery in headline employment growth, and the reforms have made the labor market more resilient to shocks. Some evidence exists that the contribution of temporary contracts to employment growth has started to decrease. However, the reliance on temporary workers remains strong overall, and further structural reforms will be required to reduce the still very high level of long-term, structural unemployment.
Book Synopsis Reforming the Labour Market in Spain by : Anita Wölfl
Download or read book Reforming the Labour Market in Spain written by Anita Wölfl and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After steady employment growth since the 1990s, Spain has experienced the sharpest increase in unemployment among OECD countries during the crisis, amplified by structural problems of the labour market. Very high de facto severance payment of permanent contracts has resulted in a rigid dual market with adverse effects on unemployment and productivity. The collective wage bargaining system has hindered firms from adapting to macroeconomic shocks exacerbating their negative effects on the labour market. The recent labour market reform legislation is a positive step to reduce excessive protection of workers in permanent contracts, although some uncertainty remains on how courts will interpret it. It also makes it easier for firms to opt out from higher level collective agreements. The large drop-out rate from lower secondary education is an important factor explaining very high unemployment among young workers. Better access of young people to training is an effective tool to keep them out of a depressed labour market. Finally, the matching of people to jobs, notably through the public employment services, needs to be made more efficient, all the more so under currently tight fiscal constraints. Although the recent reform allows private for-profit firms to provide placement services, more needs to be done. Performance of regional public employment services should be benchmarked and incentives of unemployment benefit recipients to search for a job increased. [Resumen de autor]

Book Synopsis The Political Economy of Labour Market Institutions by : Gilles Saint-Paul
Download or read book The Political Economy of Labour Market Institutions written by Gilles Saint-Paul and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to most orthodox economists, labour market rigidities are the key culprit for such high unemployment as has been observed in Europe during the past three decades. But governments that have attempted to follow the standard prescription of removing rigidities have often faced harsh political opposition. This book looks at why labour market institutions such as employment protection, unemployment benefits, and relative wage rigidities exist, what role they play in society, why they seem so persistent, where the pressure to reform them comes from, and whether reform can be politically viable or not. The book ascribes a central role to the existence of underlying microeconomic frictions and to redistributive pressures between rich and poor, and shows how these ingredients may give rise to labour market rents, which in turn explain why a coherent set of rigidities arise as the outcome of the political process. It is also shown that, at the same time, such rents create resistance to reform, and contribute to locking society into a high-unemployment, rigid equilibrium. Finally, the basic principles exposed in the book are used to discuss various strategies for a successful labour market reform.
Book Synopsis Spanish Labor Reform and Business Confidence by : Carolina Cosculluela-Martínez
Download or read book Spanish Labor Reform and Business Confidence written by Carolina Cosculluela-Martínez and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The approval of new labor reform in Spain has reignited a debate in which different professional voices discuss the impact of labor costs on variables such as the business confidence index (BCI), GDP, or employment. This research aims to assess how an increase in labor costs affects GDP and unemployment in different periods and to what degree business confidence can modify this impact. To this end, a VECM with data from 2013-2021 allows mutual causality between the variables and measures short- and long-term effects. The results show the elasticity' in different periods confirming the impact on BCI of a shock in labor cost increasingly negative and producing high negative effects on employment and GDP growth, especially on employment six months after the shock. These findings can be helpful in the formulation of policies and strategies that contribute to business confidence and influence different aspects related to production and employment decisions.
