Flexicurity and labour market reforms in Europe

Informações:

Synopsis

Some European economies are, or have recently been, reforming their labour markets to try to put in place a “flexicurity” model. Indeed, there is a strong demand for further flexibilisation of labour markets, employment and the work organization to adjust to globalization and the competition from other regions. But at same time, an equally strong demand exists for providing security to employees – and to vulnerable groups – and for preserving social cohesion which is the trademark of the European social model. http://bruegel.org/events/flexicurity-and-labour-market-reforms-in-europe/
