Perhaps someone with more knowledge of the issues might like to comment on it. Policies not Politics ---- Daily Landscape
It is widely accepted, particularly among economists, that employment protection legislation is one of the main reasons for high unemployment ... In fact, the available economic evidence provides little support for the view that scaling back EPL will result in declining unemployment
According to the OECD's 1999 evaluation of EPL, "the basic finding appears robust: overall unemployment is not significantly related to EPL strictness". The OECD's conclusion was reaffirmed in 2006 in what is perhaps the most careful test of its kind to date".
Is the OECD science or propaganda? You tell me.
