Quality of employment and employment protection. Effects of employment protection on temporary and permanent employment
The paper analyses the impact of employment protection legislation for permanent and temporary workers on total employment, permanent and temporary employment. Using panel data techniques, we investigate whether the level and the changes in employment protection for permanent and temporary workers affect the dynamics of total salaried employment, permanent employment, and temporary employment. The results of this paper contribute to a better understanding of the determinants of the evolution of employment and of the determinants of the quality of employment. ; Ministerio de Economia y Competitividal/Grant No. : RT120018-099225-B-100

The Employment Tribunal and the Employment Court
In the controversy that has accompanied the introduction of the Employment Contracts Act 1991, appreciation of the significant jurisdictional changes made by the legislation have understandably taken second place to the expression of wider concerns. The aim of this note is to examine aspects of the new Employment Tribunal and Employment Court within the overall framework of the 1991 Act. At the time of writing, the relevant Part of the 1991 Act has yet to come into force.

Employment consequences of employment protection legislation
This article surveys the literature and adds to the evidence on the impact of employment protection legislation on employment. While stringent employment protection contributes to less turnover and job reallocation, the effects on aggregate employment and unemployment over the business cycle are more uncertain. Exploitation of partial reforms and the use of micro data in recent research appear not to have affected results regarding employment and unemployment in any systematic way. Labour market prospects of young people and other marginal groups seem to worsen as a consequence of increased stringency of the legislation. It is debatable whether marginal groups have gained much from the widespread policy strategy to liberalize regulations of temporary employment and leave regulations of regular employment intact. My own analysis suggests that increased stringency of regulations for regular work is associated with a higher incidence of involuntary temporary employment, particularly among the young.

Importance of employment protection and types of employment contracts for elasticity of employment in the OECD countries
This article presents the impact of the global crisis on employment in the OECD countries, and in particular is an attempt to explain why the impact is of a different scope in particular countries. Particular attention has been paid to the question of the role played by labour market institutions (such as employment protection legislation and fixed-term employment).The global economic crisis has influenced the situation in the labour markets of OECD countries, causing declines in employment and increases in unemployment. Changes in the level of employment in individual countries varied. Between 2007-2012 declines in production took place in the majority of OECD countries. Declines in real wages were also observed in those countries. On the other hand, in the period of 2005-2012 relatively small changes in labour market institutions occurred. With respect to both the stringency of employment protection legislation, as well as the share of fixed-term employment, there were no clearly visible trends in the data during the period of economic crisis.The econometric verification of theoretical hypotheses was performed using annual data from the 2005-2012 period for 26 OECD countries, and itshows that GDP and real wages were statistically significant determinants of employment size in the analyzed period. The study also confirmed the hypothesis of the existence of a non-linear (U-shaped) relationship between employment elasticity with respect to GDP and the level of stringency of employment protection legislation, as well as the share of fixed-term employment in the total number of employment contracts. The results show that the smallest declines in employment during a crisis might be expected in countries where the level of EPL is close to 2, and the share of fixed-term employment in the total number of employment contracts is close to 18%.
