| Summary: | The manifestation of the global economic crisis has revealed that employers’ reaction to the new challenges was to lay off employees with other types of employment contracts different from those for an indefinite period of time, and in the case of those who had permanent employment agreements, but were made redundant, the response was to re-launch the economic activity which did not necessarily lead to their re-employment; however, in order to maintain the flexibility of the company in the aftermath, it was more suitable to place them in atypical employment programs. Although one cannot distinguish properly between decent jobs solely based on standard contracts of employment and in parallel with the classification of insecure jobs in the category of atypical forms of employment, the risk of uncertainty is estimated to be higher in the second case. |
