Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En América Latina las políticas de trabajo adquieren impulso en los años noventa, ante el cambio en el modelo de desarrollo de la región y su apertura a la competencia internacional. Sin embargo, la evaluación de estas políticas no ha sido una práctica sistemática y poco se sabe sobre su efectividad, eficiencia e impacto en la equidad. En este trabajo se abordan los conceptos básicos en torno al tema y se hace un repaso de los enfoques metodológicos más comúnmente utilizados en el contexto internacional. En una segunda parte se examinan las políticas para el mercado de trabajo aplicadas en la región y se exploran las principales experiencias en materia de evaluación.

Download or read book Labor Markets in Latin America written by Sebastian Edwards and published by Brookings Institution Press. This book was released on 2001-06-29 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many of the rules that govern labor markets in Latin America (and elsewhere) raise labor costs, create barriers to entry, and introduce rigidities in the employment structure. These include the exceedingly restrictive regulations on hiring and firing practices, as well as burdensome social insurance schemes. Such labor market regulations contribute to an over-expansion of precarious forms of employment and to rural poverty, and hinder countries from responding rapidly to new challenges from increased foreign competition. At the same time, other norms can reduce costs and raise productivity; they should be kept in place and their enforcement improved. For example, some occupational health and safety standards lower medical costs and save lives. One may also want to keep legislation aimed at providing a minimum social insurance for unemployment, old age, sickness, and disabilities. In practice, the most common decision that governments confront is not whether to intervene but to choose among different forms of intervention. This volume provides analysts and policymakers with useful insights on this issue. Part I addresses labor market institutions in a broader context, such as collective bargaining arrangements, minimum wages and poverty, and optimal unemployment insurance schemes. Part II analyzes labor market performance in Latin America, the links between performance and labor market regulations, and the status of labor market reform in the region. These questions are addressed for the region as a whole and in great detail for Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Mexico, and Colombia. The book provides a comprehensive description of the existing labor institutions in Latin America, the problems they pose, and the trends in labor market reforms as well as the difficulties encountered by the reform process in specific cases. In addition to the editors, the contributors are Edward Amadeo, Jose Marcio Camargo, Alejandra Cox Edwards, Rene Cortazar, Enriqu

This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canada and the countries of Latin America are in the midst of major changes and choices in the area of labor markets and related social policy. These decisions are likely to have profound consequences for the quality of life of workers throughout the hemisphere. Labor Market Policies in Canada and Latin America: Challenges of the New Millennium reviews the evidence of Canada and Latin America on three major labor policy instruments - unemployment insurance, minimum wages and training - and on the effects of the payroll taxes which are the main means of funding the unemployment insurance system and other components of social expenditure. This is the first study attempting an in-depth comparison of these labor policy instruments between Canada and Latin America. The useful juxtaposition of Canadian and Latin American experiences comes at a time when the trend in Canada is to back away from the perhaps overly generous or ineffectively administered elements of the labor legislation/social security net and when Latin American countries have undertaken significant reforms of their past systems but require further changes to move toward the sorts of legislation and support systems that characterize developed countries. The experiences of Canada and Latin America are mutually relevant since all are small economies forced to adjust to events at the world or hemispheric level and most are inclined to approach policy in an intermediate fashion which falls between the more market-oriented American and the more interventionist European models. Together with its comparative aspect, this volume attempts a more balanced and in-depth assessment in each of the policy areas than has hitherto been available. The gradually increasing base of available empirical data on the period after the reforms has been used in the studies, which provide thorough syntheses of the available research for Canada and Latin America.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the resumption of economic growth in most Latin America and Caribbean (LAC) countries since the late 1980s, improvements on the employment/unemployment front fave been sluggish at best, with a few notable exceptions. In many countries, renewed growth in LAC in the 1990s has so far failed to generate adequate new jobs in place of those lost during the adjustment , and to restore wages to precrisis levels. After a number of years of relatively high economic growth, the employment outlook in many countries remains worrisome. In those countries where unemployment rates appear to be low, often as a result of how they are measured, the concern is the low quality and renumeration levels of available jobs.

Download or read book La calidad del empleo en Am rica Latina a principios del siglo XXI written by Stefano Farné and published by U. Externado de Colombia. This book was released on 2012 with total page 4 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La globalización y liberalización de los mercados mundiales no solo evidenciaron ser incapaces de propiciar una mayor equidad social y mejores condiciones laborales, sino que llevaron a un relajamiento de las condiciones contractuales y al crecimiento del empleo atípico. Estos eventos condujeron a un resurgimiento de iniciativas en materia de calidad del empleo por parte de la academia y de las principales organizaciones internacionales. Fue así como la Fundación Europea para la Mejora de las Condiciones de Vida y de Trabajo llevó a cabo en 1990 su primera encuesta sobre condiciones de trabajo en 12 países de la Unión Europea. Por su parte, la OIT formuló en 1999 el concepto de trabajo decente, el cual entró a ser parte integrante de los Objetivos de Desarrollo del Milenio de las Naciones Unidas en 2008. Aunque se parte de aproximaciones teóricas diferentes, todas las contribuciones que recopila este libro realizan un análisis económico de la calidad del empleo desde la perspectiva de los trabajadores. Kirsten Sehnbruch estudia el caso de Chile; Julio Gamero, el de Perú; Jürgen Weller y Claudia Roethlisberger, el de América Latina en su conjunto; Stefano Farné, Carlos Andrés Vergara y Norma Baquero analizaron a Colombia, y Carmen Rosa Marull, a Bolivia y Ecuador. Estas investigaciones comparten una inquietud común acerca de los efectos que tuvo sobre la calidad del empleo el sostenido impulso que recientemente anotaron las economías de América Latina. Los resultados muestran que, a pesar del auge del empleo atípico y de la desregulación de los mercados laborales experimentados en América Latina, prevalece una relación positiva entre la calidad de los empleos y su cantidad. Este es un resultado que obliga a adoptar una perspectiva de análisis no limitada a considerar el empleo asalariado de tiempo completo, a término indefinido, con un solo empleador como la única opción válida de trabajo de calidad.
