Abstract: This paper analyses the impact of employment security on labour demand at the industry level by estimating a dynamic labour demand function that allows for a measure of employment security to affect the long‐run structure and dynamic adjustment of labour demand. Results indicate that in nearly all the industries studied employment security can have significant effects in slowing down the dynamic adjustment of labour demand, particularly in response to changes in GDP.
