The plan would, for purposes of calculating pensions, add three years to the ages and tenures of workers 53 and older this year who are not covered by collective bargaining or other agreements.
Nor did our dataset include good measures of the actual performance and job tenure of health workers, which prevented us from investigating how the motivational determinants influence health worker performance and turnover.
Moreover, large firms are required to give to the employee a term of notice in order to proceed with an individual dismissal, whose length depends on the tenure of the worker, with detailed indications of the reasons for the dismissal.
Yet, the gap would be proportional for any other job tenure of the dismissed worker (usually up to a cap between 20 and 30 years of tenure).
Second, subsidies might in the longer term raise tenure of a subsidized worker if an initial skill mismatch diminishes with training on the job.
The difficulty in teasing out the effect on productivity growth could reflect the fact that firms adjust to high employment protection through capital and skill deepening and/or the fact that longer expected tenure leads to more training of workers.
"HRs were generally greater after exclusion of workers with shorter tenure" but it "was not necessary to restrict the analyses on tenure for a statistically significant exposure-response finding to arise".
One group of workers, with secure tenure, will hold on to their jobs at all costs, whereas another group (often young people) will be able to get only precarious jobs or none at all.Naturally enough, trade unions tend to resist flexible labour contracts; they represent the insiders who are benefiting from job security, not the unemployed.
First, youth are commonly the ones most affected by economic downturn, as firms may be less willing or able to let go of workers with longer tenure.
Depending on how the single-employment contract is modelled, it is quite possible that it makes the situation of workers with short tenure even more precarious than it would be on a temporary contract.
