Abstract:
From a theoretical standpoint the flexibility of a work arrangement
does not imply precariousness for the workers involved. However
our empirical analysis shows that flexibility introduced through nonstandard
contracts has had in Italy a negative impact on what we identified
as three barriers against precariousness: employment continuity,
a decent wage level and access to income-maintenance schemes
in case of non-employment. Thus, even if flexibility and precariousness
cannot be conflated at the analytical level, it turns out that
they are strongly associated at the empirical level. In order to uncouple
non-standard contracts and precariousness, we argue that each
determinant of the latter should be addressed: employment continuity,
wages, and social protection. In particular, we put forward a
reform plan of the unemployment benefit system.
