Conclusions: Quality and Quantity

Chapter 9 in The Chilean Labor Market, 2006, pp 239-274 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The introductory chapter to this book suggested that if the Chilean labor market after years of high and stable economic growth combined with targeted social policies could not generate good jobs, then it was unlikely that other Latin American countries with much less favorable economic circumstances and or fewer resources could do so. The empirical evidence presented in the preceding chapters demonstrated that in effect Chile has not generated quality employment. So this of course leads us to the question, what could Chile have done differently or what could it now do to improve the employment situation of its workforce? And what can other developing countries do to improve the quality of their labor market?
