This book reveals that the results of such policies have been far from those expected.This study provides a country by country overview of the legal regulations concerning employment protection and fixed-term employment in the twelve Member States of the European Union (prior to its expansion in 1995). Employment patterns of fixed-term employees are compared with those of employees in standard employment relationships, with the analytical focus on age-, gender- and industry specific differences. The authors then look beyond country-specific patterns and assess the probability of fixed-term employment within the European Union. They offer hypotheses concerning the impact upon the labour market of deregulation and of regulation.This is a valuable discussion of how legal, sociological and economic labour market theories contribute to an understanding of atypical employment.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51859666108704,"sku":"NEW041515734X","price":303.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/51xPtp3OkaL.jpg?v=1781591866","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/labour-market-efficiency-in-the-european-union-employment-protection-and-fixed-term-contracts-routledge-studies-in-the-european-economy-041515734x","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
