labour market policies measures meant to address failure
in labour markets, in particular measures that reduce unwanted distortions in the process of supply meeting demand.

labour market
![Page 23: International Labour Organization labour market policies an introductory elaborated by Fred Fluitman Presented by Mostefa Boudiaf International Training.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/5518b9d0550346881f8b52df/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
in free (labour) markets the forces of supply and demand are allowed to operate unhampered by government regulation or other interference; decisions by individual “buyers” and “sellers”are coordinated by movement in prices.
free? market?

in reality, free labour markets don’t exist:• labour is not a commodity
– people have rights
• competition is far from perfect– contractual relationship inherently unbalanced
– considerable information problems
• decisions are subject to regulation– formal or informal
free? market?

regulation
different mixes of three modes of regulation:
– statutory, i.e. through laws and decrees• hiring, firing, job security• minimum wages
– “voice”, i.e. through collective bargaining• wages and other working conditions
– market-based
![Page 26: International Labour Organization labour market policies an introductory elaborated by Fred Fluitman Presented by Mostefa Boudiaf International Training.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/5518b9d0550346881f8b52df/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
regulation
• opposing views on its employment outcomes:
Freeman(1993):• the “institutionalist” view• the “distortionist” view
![Page 27: International Labour Organization labour market policies an introductory elaborated by Fred Fluitman Presented by Mostefa Boudiaf International Training.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/5518b9d0550346881f8b52df/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
regulation
• the “institutionalist” view:
regulation ensures social protection seen as instrumental in productivity growth (training, accumulating firm-specific skills) and as a means of moderating the effects of downswings in aggregate demand
![Page 28: International Labour Organization labour market policies an introductory elaborated by Fred Fluitman Presented by Mostefa Boudiaf International Training.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/5518b9d0550346881f8b52df/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
regulation
• the “distortionist” view:
institutional forms of regulation impede adjustment to economic shocks, discourage hiring, and favour “insiders” (regular workers, mostly prime-age males) over “outsiders” (e.g.women and young workers)
![Page 29: International Labour Organization labour market policies an introductory elaborated by Fred Fluitman Presented by Mostefa Boudiaf International Training.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/5518b9d0550346881f8b52df/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
regulation at the international level• the ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work
(1998)• freedom of association and the effective right to collective bargaining• the elimination of all forms of forced or compulsory labour• the effective abolition of child labour• the elimination of discrimination in employment and occupation

active labour market programmes
• primary objectives: (re-) integration of the unemployed; productivity/income growth of under-employed– to increase the supply of needed skilled workers (e.g. training
employed and unemployed, programmes for the disabled)
– to increase the demand for workers (e.g. direct jobcreation, incentives to employers, self-employment/ SME promotion)
– to improve matching workers and jobs (e.g.job search assistance, public employment services, mobility incentives)

passive labour market programmes
• primary objective: income support to the unemployed– early retirement– severance pay– unemployment insurance– unemployment assistance– public works programmes

world-wide liberalisation of trade, investment and capital flows– exports world-wide are rising as a proportion of GDP
– foreign direct investment flows have also risen sharply
– growth of global production systems, incl. intra-firm trade in intermediate products, subcontracting, licensing, franchising, and out-sourcing arrangements across national frontiers
– huge growth in volume of international trading in foreign exchange, bonds and equities, and new financial instruments
globalisation

With a view to maintaining competitiveness in international markets and to safeguard their balance of payments, Governments are under pressure to get their macro-economic policies “right” , to minimise “market distortions”, and to improve “allocative efficiency”.
globalisation
![Page 48: International Labour Organization labour market policies an introductory elaborated by Fred Fluitman Presented by Mostefa Boudiaf International Training.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/5518b9d0550346881f8b52df/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Hence, the widespread trend towards smaller government, including lower expenditure and taxes, reduced political support for redistributive measures, and deregulation of markets, including labour markets.

At the same time, the pace of technological change and product obsolescence has increased, as enterprises try to keep one step ahead of their competitors at home and abroad. The aim is for flexible production systems:
