“…This is a robust result, which happens in all the estimated equations. These results support the conclusions reached by Arestis, Ferreiro, and Gómez (2020b) about the short-and long-term effects of economic growth on income distribution. From a business cycle perspective, it implies that labour share declines during booms but increases during recessions.…”

“…Ferreiro and Gómez (forthcoming) conclude that employment protection legislation is not a significant determinant of the dynamics of employment and unemployment rates. In this sense, Arestis, Ferreiro, and Gómez (2020b) conclude that, although EPL is not a significant determinant of the evolution of employments, however, it does have a significant impact on the evolution of temporary employment, contributing to generate a segmented labour market.…”

“…Some studies argue that the relationship between the employment protection and the labour marker results is not linear, with negative effects of employment protection on employment and unemployment occurring when there is an excessive protection (Arestis, Ferreiro, and Gómez 2020b). Consequently, we run two different models.…”

This paper analyses the role played by the flexibilization of labour markets on functional income distribution. Specifically, we analyse whether employment protection legislation affects the evolution of labour income share, measured by the size of compensation of employees as a percentage of GDP, the sum of wages and salaries as a percentage of GDP and the size of the adjusted wage share, in twenty European economies. Our study?s results show that the evolution of labour income share is explained by the economic growth, the growth of employment and unemployment rates, and the growth of real wages. Regarding the role played by the flexibility of the labour market, and specifically of the employment protection legislation, only employment protection for temporary workers has a significant impact on the evolution of labour shares. Our results show that stricter provisions on the use of fixed-term and temporary agency contracts have a positive impact on the growth of labour shares.

“…Total, permanent and temporary employment in the context of European labor law is the subject of an interesting analysis (Arestis et al, 2020). Based on the panel analysis, the authors investigate the relationship between changes in employment protection for permanent and temporary workers and employment dynamics across the three mentioned above categories.…”

The multiple global crisis has made the economies of the world’s countries, including EU’s economy, vulnerable through the downgrading of the pandemic and the subsequent outbreak of geo-political conflict. These two events had the effect of decelerating the European economy and increasing the poverty level of the population, even that these developments are weaker than in rest of the world. The main objective of the present scientific approach is to identify a risk function based on Markov probability chains and to assess the possibilities of economic recovery through a package of policies structured over different time horizons. The used methods consist of meta-analysis, statistical analysis and geo-spatial and temporal modelling. The results of the study capture the integrated developments of risk-generating macroeconomic elements such as inflation, unemployment, public debt growth in a regionally segregated manner. These elements are useful for supranational decision-makers to increase the economic survival rate after multiple shocks through our proposed policy package.
