Atypical work as flexible work: The rise if labour instability in the Spanish labour market

Anna Ginès i Fabrellas Logo ORCID

Abstract

The aim of the article is to analyze the Spanish labour law reforms adopted in a period of 10 years and their impact in terms of increasing or decreasing employment precariousness; particularly, in terms of increasing or decreasing labour instability through the promotion of atypical forms of work. The paper concludes that the legislative efforts aimed at promoting permanent employment mainly through reductions on Social Security contributions on behalf of the employer have been offset with other reforms that promote and favour atypical forms of work, such as fixed-term, training, internship, part-time contracts, and self-employment. As a result, atypical forms of work have significantly increased and become flexible forms of work, thus, increasing labour instability.
