Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Law and Employment analyzes the effects of regulation and deregulation on Latin American labor markets and presents empirically grounded studies of the costs of regulation. Numerous labor regulations that were introduced or reformed in Latin America in the past thirty years have had important economic consequences. Nobel Prize-winning economist James J. Heckman and Carmen Pagés document the behavior of firms attempting to stay in business and be competitive while facing the high costs of complying with these labor laws. They challenge the prevailing view that labor market regulations affect only the distribution of labor incomes and have little or no impact on efficiency or the performance of labor markets. Using new micro-evidence, this volume shows that labor regulations reduce labor market turnover rates and flexibility, promote inequality, and discriminate against marginal workers. Along with in-depth studies of Colombia, Peru, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, Jamaica, and Trinidad, Law and Employment provides comparative analysis of Latin American economies against a range of European countries and the United States. The book breaks new ground by quantifying not only the cost of regulation in Latin America, the Caribbean, and in the OECD, but also the broader impact of this regulation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Simple numerical measures of the minimum wage may offer deceptive indicators of its impact. Alternative measures, such as kernel density or cumulative distribution plots, are more reliable, and highlight influences higher in the wage distribution or on the informal sector. Panel employment data from Colombia, where minimum wages seem high and binding, show that the minimum wage can have important impacts on wages and unemployment across the wage distribution.

Download or read book Lessons from NAFTA written by Luis Serven and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2004-11-15 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analyzing the experience of Mexico under the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), 'Lessons from NAFTA' aims to provide guidance to Latin American and Caribbean countries considering free trade agreements with the United States. The authors conclude that the treaty raised external trade and foreign investment inflows and had a modest effect on Mexico's average income per person. It is likely that the treaty also helped achieve a modest reduction in poverty and an improvement in job quality. This book will be of interest to scholars and policymakers interested in international trade and development.

Book excerpt: During a decade of rapid growth, more jobs and higher wages dramatically reduced poverty and drove down historically high levels of inequality. Governments in the region complemented the gains from growth with investments in social protection policies, further reducing poverty and inequality. Countries in Latin America and the Caribbean are rightfully proud of these achievements. As the region prepares for a long period of slower growth and tighter budgets, the value of their investment in building social protection systems will grow. Social protection can help protect social gains as labor earnings and employment fall. The evidence accumulated from the region's experience of which social protection interventions work and which do not, will be an essential resource to guide difficult policy decisions. Countries will move ahead with the long run development of their diverse social protection systems as they are able. But in the shorter run three areas of policy action will rise in priority: (i) protecting poor and vulnerable people through the lean years; (ii) finding fiscal savings in reforms to large and regressive items of social policy; and (iii) fielding labor market initiatives to support workers during a long, slack period and prepare them for economic recovery.
