Is too much regulation holding Europe back? How labor market constraints can reduce global competitiveness
Abstract
Purpose
Aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoints practical implications from cutting‐edge research and case studies.
Design/methodology/approach
This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context.
Findings
The issue of labor markets is a very hot political issue as Europe heads towards the end of the first decade of the 21st Century – but it is in the area of immigration, rather than competition. The rights and wrongs of how many immigrants are allowed into a given country exercise the media in particular, splitting opinion down traditional political lines of left and right, yet the economists who argue between regulation and deregulation of this issue are largely ignored in the melee.
Practical implications
Provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced some of the world's leading organizations.
Originality/value
The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy‐to‐digest format.
